d. The violence aimed at freed people.

Explanation:

Radical Republicans defended that freed people should have the same rights as everybody and because of that they were called "radical republicans". The Radical Republicans defended that Confederate leaders should be punished for their roles in the Civil War and that the federal government should intervene in the states so the blacks could be able to compete in a free-labor economy.
