Why were slaves not aloud to learn to read or write

History
1 answer:
Afina-wow [57]3 years ago
3 0
Because knowledge is power. Leaving slaves uneducated made sure that they weren't able to communicate with others nor form coherent thoughts which made sense at the time because they weren't necessarily considered human, if anything, at some point in time they were only considered 3/5ths of a human, that is, in America.

Tomtit [17]

Answer:

1. His opposition to Radical Recontruction policies for former Confederate states

2. By offering legal assistance and public schooling to former slaves

Explanation:

1. "The impeachment of President Andrew Johnson was the result of political conflict and the rupture of ideologies in the aftermath of the American Civil War. It arose from uncompromised beliefs and a contest for power in a nation struggling with reunification."

2. "The Freedmen's Bureau provided food, housing and medical aid, established schools and offered legal assistance. It also attempted to settle former slaves on land confiscated or abandoned during the war."

I hope this helps. If I happen to be incorrect, I apoligize. I tried to answer them as best I could.

How did bienville become leader of the Louisiana colony
White raven [17]

Answer:

Después de la muerte de Sauvolle en 1701, Bienville ascendió al cargo de gobernador del nuevo territorio para el primero de sus cuatro gobiernos. Por 1701, sólo 180 personas permanecieron en la colonia; el resto había muerto a causa de la desnutrición y las enfermedades. Bienville fue gobernador por un total de 30 años.

Explanation:

Entre las recomendaciones de su hermano, Bienville trasladó la mayoría de los colonos a un nuevo asentamiento en lo que hoy es Alabama en el lado oeste del río Mobile, llamado Fort Louis de la Mobile (o "Mobille"). También estableció un puerto de aguas profundas cerca de Dauphin Island para la colonia, como la bahía de Mobile y el río Mobile eran demasiado poco profundos para buques de navegación marítima. La población de la colonia fluctuó en los próximos años. En 1704, en parte, debido al miedo a que la confraternización de los soldados franceses con mujeres nativas puedan conducir a un conflicto, Bienville hizo arreglos para la importación de veinticuatro mujeres jóvenes francesas. Por tradición las jóvenes fueron seleccionados de conventos, aunque la mayoría eran probablemente de familias pobres, y viajaron al Nuevo Mundo con sus posesiones en pequeños troncos conocidos como casetes, por lo que son conocidos en las historias locales como Las chicas casquette en la tradición temprana y por la traducción en inglés de las niñas ataúd en la tradición posterior.
