What does the recollection by John McCoy suggest about the changes in freedom of African Americans following the Civil War?

1 answer:

8 0

From his recollections, McCoy remembers the years after the Civil War, describing how there weren't many differences between his life as a freedman and a slave. Even though slavery was abolished, it is observable in the interview that there were few guarantees to exercise liberty, hence being uneducated, dependence on former slavemasters and disinterest on political issues were some of the aspects that led McCoy to conclude that changes weren't that visible.

Answer:

The Soviet Union's primary purpose was to prevent East Germans from escaping to West Germany.

Explanation:

The Berlin Wall was built to divide communist East Germany from democratic West Germany and to keep East Germans from escaping to West Germany. After World War II, defeated Germany was divided into four zones, each occupied by Allied forces: the United States, France, Great Britain and the Soviet Union. Tension between the communist territory and the democratic territories mounted, and the Berlin Wall was built to separate them. I hope I helped, please corrected if I'm wrong!

IgorLugansk [536]

Ernest Hemingway and F Scott Fitzgerald both practiced a similar style of narrative prose, the two sharing the theme of looking at their lives in retrospect and realizing their mistakes. An example of this is the protagonist Charlie in Babylon Revisited.
