Answer: D) Eugene Talmadge.

Step-by-step explanation:

Eugene Talmadge, who served as Georgia's governor for three non-consecutive terms, was a staunch segregationist who opposed civil rights for Black Americans. He supported the use of violence and intimidation to prevent Black Americans from exercising their rights and resisted federal efforts to integrate schools and public spaces. Talmadge's political career was marked by his support of white supremacy and his opposition to racial equality.
