Answer:

b. were some of the first laws adopted as part of Radical Reconstruction in 1867.

Explanation:

The result of the civil war was a drastic shortage of labour force because the newly freed slaves were not willing to work. The Southern Black Codes were passed in 1965 and 1966 to aid reconstruction efforts by making cheap labour available.
