The correct answre is: "the act was enacted to outlaw discriminatory voting practices against black citizens that functioned in many Southern States".

In the United States, after the enactment of the Reconstruction Amendments (after the Civil War), which guaranteed equality of rights for all US citizens, many Southern states tried to circumvent such provisions with the enactment of the so-called Jim Crow laws. These contained many regulations that prevented many black citizens from access to vote in practice, by setting requirements such as literacy test or a minimum income level.

All these practices were ended with the enactment of the Voting Rights Act in 1965 that <u>prohibits racial discrimination in voting and which derogated the whole Jim Crow legal system. </u>

Answer:

the act was enacted to outlaw discriminatory voting practices against black citizens that functioned in many Southern States

Explanation:

There were numerous kinds of problems faced by African Americans to enter the political system. The poll tax, literacy test and other bureaucratic restrictions combined with violence against African Americans brought the issue to the national stage. To overcome these problems these taxes were abolished and federal agents were appointed to strengthen the participation of African Americans in the political process.

La separacion de panama era inevitable?
kirill115 [55]

Answer:

La separación de Panamá de Colombia se formalizó el 3 de noviembre de 1903, con el establecimiento de la República de Panamá. Desde la Independencia de Panamá de España en 1821, Panamá había declarado simultáneamente su independencia de España y se había unido a la confederación de Gran Colombia a través del Acta de Independencia de Panamá. Panamá siempre estuvo tenuemente conectado con el resto del país hacia el sur, debido a su lejanía del gobierno en Bogotá y la falta de una conexión terrestre práctica con el resto de Gran Colombia. En 1840-1841, se estableció una república independiente de corta duración bajo Tomás de Herrera. Después de reincorporarse a Colombia después de una independencia de 13 meses, siguió siendo una provincia que experimentó frecuentes estallidos rebeldes, en particular la crisis de Panamá de 1885, que vio la intervención de la Armada de los Estados Unidos y una reacción de la Armada de Chile.

How does the historian affect history? Historians do not include why events happen. Historians rarely affect history when record
s2008m [1.1K]

Historians affect history because the bias of historians will affect the way that they record events.

Whether intentional or unintentional, many historians include bias in their writing when recording events. Bias is your personal beliefs or attitudes skewed for or against a topic that influence your writing. If a historian includes this in their writing about an event, it can change the way that the event is perceived by the public. Many historians relay the facts in a similar manner, but it is the bias that makes their stories unique from one another and also how they affect history.

Hope this helps!
