Answer: See in explanation

Explanation:

The destruction that took place in Louisiana plantations was a sight to behold. With both Union and Confederate armies bombing buildings and destroying towns, estimated losses add up to around $500 million.

Because of their freedom, and all this chaos among the folk in power, the African American people tried to get land of their own. The government even promised these people "40 acres and a mule". Of course, this promise went unfulfilled, around 5% of former slaves in Louisiana and other ex-Confederate states owned their own land. Those who did have land didn't have the funds to develop it. Louisiana wasn't doing well for the first year after the emancipation, but in 1871 cotton farmers started a new union, the state only grew from there.

defon

The correct answer is: President Hoover believed that the government should respond to the Great Depression <u>by pursuing new programs to help citizens.</u>

The Great Depression caused the collapse of the American economy, and poverty increased.

Hoover tried to deal with this economic downturn by launching several programs to help the people, namely: A work program where he developed large public works such as the Hoover Dam on the Colorado River and he signed The Smoot-Hawley Act -the Tariff Act- which had the purpose of protecting the U.S. trade and the farmer's rights, that were highly affected by the Great Depression. The law increased 900 import tariffs on foreign agricultural by an average of nearly 50 percent.

The 31st president also increased federal subsidies for agriculture and approved the Glass-Steagall Act, which limited the activities of commercial banks in an attempt to stabilize the banking sector.
