Solution

One strategy that Radical Republicans used to achieve their goals for Reconstruction was A. Impeaching Andrew Johnson after he opposed their plans. The Radical Republicans were a faction of the Republican Party that believed in equal rights for all, including African Americans. They were opposed to President Andrew Johnson's lenient policies towards the South after the Civil War. When Johnson tried to obstruct their plans for Reconstruction, they impeached him in the House of Representatives. However, they failed to remove him from office in the Senate by one vote.
