Explanation: The Catholic Church, prior to the Reformation, had power and control over just about anything because of the social construct of the people there at the time. Back then what the Pope says, goes--or else. He was basically the Kim Jung-Un of their time.
The Pope along with the people of the church were at the highest section of the social hierarchy of the Ancient Roman Empire, with the Kings following closely behind. Why was this? There was a common concept the kings used to claims their right to power: The "Divine Right of Kings." This basically stated the whoever the king is at the time is so because they were chosen by god. The Pope, however, was received as the closest person to God and therefore had more power than the Kings did because of that. Everyone else was lower than them and had little to no power at all especially in comparison to the Church and the King.
For his first election, African Americans voted massively in favor of Republicans for the last time due to Lincoln’s legacy and Southern Bourbon Democrats.
After he became president, Roosevelt made sure that all New Deal relief programs were available to African Americans across the nation. He publicly expressed his condemnation of lynching of African Americans in the South as “murder”. He even appointed a “Black Cabinet” in which prominent African American advisers provided him with assistance and propositions in favor off African American communities. He used an executive order to outlaw discrimination of racial and religious minorities working for defense contractors.
He created the Fair Employment Practices Committee to enforce such order. Finally his wife, First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt publicly supported African American demands for fair wages and equal rights.
The major downfall of the Articles of Confederation was simply weakness. The federal government, under the Articles, was too weak to enforce their laws and therefore had no power. The Continental Congress had borrowed money to fight the Revolutionary War and could not repay their debts.
