Article II. Each state retains its sovereignty, freedom and independence, and every power, jurisdiction and right, which is not
Maslowich

Answer:

<em>The Social Contract principle states that man was naturally free, and lived without rules or order, but in order to protect their rights and properties government was created.</em> Under the Social Contract theory, government is only valid with the consent of people. This principle inspired the Founding Fathers and can be found under the Articles of Confederation and the Declaration of Independence.

<u>Thomas Jefferson reflected the Social Contract theory into the Declaration of Independence by stating that Britain's Crown had not fulfilled their duties as Government of the Colonies and that this was cause of separation. </u>(<em>"Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed"</em>).

The Articles of Confederation reflected the Social Contract theory by <em>maintaining the sovereignty of states (Article I) </em>and creating a union where each state gave consent to the central government to use its power. <em>The idea of Article II that nine states had to agree so that the central government could act, is also a reflection of the social contract. </em>

Jim Crow laws were forced upon minorities at the end of Reconstruction by what means? the desegregation of all public facilities
VMariaS [17]
The best answers are:
-<span>making it almost impossible for them to vote
-segregating blacks from whites in most states

Jim Crow laws sought to scale back the rights and equality that African Americans were receiving in the Reconstruction Era following the Civil War. To this end, Jim Crow states in the South made it virtually impossible for blacks to vote, and often tampered with black votes. 
They also made segregation a formal written law in the Southern states, outlawing the shared use of almost all facilities, public or private, by black and white people. 

Jim Crow could not, however, repeal the 14th Amendment and did the opposite of desegregating public facilities.  </span>
