The correct answer is D) They hunted down and lynched innocent blacks without a trial.

The statement that does not describe a method whites used to keep blacks from exercising their rights was "They hunted down and lynched innocent blacks without a trial."

We are talking about the Reconstruction years in which President Abraham Lincoln gave the Southern states leeway to do Reconstruction at their own pace.

Of course, people from the South did not like the idea of ending slavery because their economy depended too much on slaves tor produce crops in the large plantations that had to be exported to Europe. So to minimize the rights of black people, Southerner passed the black codes and Jim Crow laws that limited the rights of African Americans.
