The correct answer to the statement: Focus shifted away from Reconstruction, because..., is, B: Sluggish economy and rumors of a corrupt government.

Explanation:

During the period of 1868 and 1877, at the very end of Reconstruction, American focus turned from the importance of slavery abolition and the protection of slaves´ rights, to economic difficulties. This was really important for those who believed that African Americans did not need more rights than they had already received, especially those from the South, and it accomplished the removal of troops from the South. After such a long, and expensive war, and with the arrival of Rutherford B. Hayes, in 1876, Americans became more interested in re-starting their slowing and dwindling economy, than maintaining their fight against conservatives from the South who wished slavery to be restored.
