    Most blacks owned their own land in Mississippi. 

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    The statement is false because historically, most blacks did not own their own land in Mississippi. During the era of slavery, black people were considered property and were not allowed to own land. Even after slavery ended, black people faced systemic discrimination and were often denied access to land ownership. This continued through the Jim Crow era and into the civil rights movement. It was not until much later that significant progress was made in terms of black land ownership in Mississippi.

    Cassie befriends LIllian Jean when she finally realizes "the way of things".

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False

Therefore, the statement is false.
