Explain how the slave codes operated in education and assembly

1 answer:

7 0

Every Slave State in the USA had Slave codes during the period in which slavery was legal. These slave codes were legal codes regarding the owning of slaves, much the same as laws regarding real-estate (they were very similar). Since slaves were treated as property the basic human rights that applied to other American's did not apply to them, in fact, any slave marriages that occurred meant absolutely nothing in the eyes of the law as property technically cannot marry (think of it like a fork marrying a spoon, except worse because these are people).

Some slave codes even made it illegal for slaves to be educated. In regards to assembly, slave codes would not allow for assembly of slaves outside of mandatory assembly (chain gangs, ect.)

Hope this helps!

Answer: I think it is D or B

Explanation: "Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent, a new nation, conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal."

What i see from reading this address is lincoln did not make this speach to dis the confederacy, which means it is not A. Edward Everetts address is long winded but only serves to back up lincoln, so not C. People around this time were not very friendly to the opposing side at least lincolns address is begging them to remember the reason they are fighting. slavery and the freedom of ALL men.
