The correct answer is B. "Jim Crow" laws, discrimination, and segregation in the South

Explanation:

In migration or the displacement of people from one place to other a "push factor" is a situation or factor that "pushes" people or make them want to leave the place where they live such as war, conflict, famine or lack of opportunities. In the case of African Americans moving during the Reconstruction Era (1865-1877) an important "push factor" was all the discrimination and segregation in the South as despite slavery had been banned it was not possible for African Americans to have a job, attend school or live in the way white people did which was reinforced by laws such as the "Jim Crow" laws.

the berlin blockade was an international crisis that arose from an attempt by the soviet union, in 1948–49, to force the western allied powers (the united states, the united kingdom, and france) to abandon their post-world war ii jurisdictions in west berlin. in march 1948 the allied powers decided to unite their different occupation zones of germany into a single economic unit. in protest, the soviet representative withdrew from the allied control council. coincident with the introduction of a new deutsche mark in west berlin (as throughout west germany), which the soviets regarded as a violation of agreements with the allies, the soviet occupation forces in eastern germany began a blockade of all rail, road, and water communications between berlin and the west. on june 24 the soviets announced that the four-power administration of berlin had ceased and that the allies no longer had any rights there.
