[AI-generated answer — Explain Bot]

The correct response would be: "to protect the ability of Freedmen to participate in choosing a government through voting." The Fifteenth Amendment was passed by Congress to ensure that newly freed African Americans, also known as Freedmen, would have the right to vote and participate in the democratic process. To find this answer, you would need to understand the purpose of the Fifteenth Amendment and the historical context of the post-Civil War era. This information can be found in history books, online resources, or by studying primary sources such as the text of the Fifteenth Amendment itself. Understanding the motivations and goals of Congress during that time period is key to finding the correct response.
