Answer
A
the right to own property
B
the right to present evidence in court
C
the right to equal protection of the law
D
the right to bear arms

Explanation

The Civil Rights Act of 1866 guaranteed citizens the same rights to make and enforce contracts, sue, give evidence in court, and own property as white citizens. It also provided equal protection of the laws. Therefore, owning property, presenting evidence in court, and equal protection apply; the right to bear arms was not one of the rights listed in this act.
