The way in which state governments restricted the vote of African Americans after the American Revolution was through the imposition of discriminatory clauses such as poll taxes, by means of which it was impossible to grant people with fewer resources; literacy tests, by means of which only people with a certain level of education (who were generally only white) could vote; and the demands that the ancestors of the voter be free, which meant that the vast majority of African Americans could not meet this requirement.

These requirements were clearly unjust, discriminatory and unconstitutional, since they violated the freedoms of these people and their right to equality, which in turn are part of the very essence of the United States as a nation.

Answer:  Lorraine Motel, Memphis, Tennessee

Explanation:

Assuming the King you are referring to is Martin Luther King Jr., he was fatally shot on April 4, 1968 at the Lorraine Motel in Memphis, Tennessee allegedly by James Earl Ray who spent the rest of his years in prison trying to convince the world that he did not do it.

It was not the first time that King had been targeted as he had been stabbed a decade earlier in 1958 and only barely survived but according to sources he knew he would be assassinated as he once remarked to his wife that JFK's fate would be his as well.

Since Rosa Parks was not the first African American women arrested for bus violation,why did her arrest ignite the boycott?
Varvara68 [4.7K]
I’m not sure if this is the answer you want, but from what I gathered, it looks like there had been lots of planning to boycott before this incident. Parks was an active member of this discussion and some think that her refusal to move was a challenge. When she was arrested, African American rights groups such as the NAACP took that as a chance to begin the boycott, which was organized by Martin Luther King Jr.

The Espionage Act of 1917 made _____ illegal.
Mashutka [201]
The correct answer is <span>(c)speaking out against World War I

The act made those who spoke against participation in the World War seem like spies who were doing it out of the desire to actually help the Germans. This was in part because many of the people in the US were of German national heritage so there was a lot of fear that there were spies who supported Germany in secrecy. The people would be charged with things like espionage or treason or similar and be put to trial.</span>
