Sectionalism

Sectionalism divides a country's loyalties according to the local interests of each section or region.
As an example, you could look at how different sections of the country might react to protective tariffs.  In the sectionalism that occurred in the Civil War era, the South was against tariffs because they relied on the import of British goods.  The North supported tariffs to protect their homegrown industries.
In the present moment in history, the US president recently announced a plan to impose heavy tariffs on steel imports.  That sort of policy is supported in areas like Pennsylvania where US steel production is centered.  But such tariffs are opposed in other sections of the country and other sectors of industry that rely on affordable steel in making their products -- such as automobiles.

List ways that the United States government promoted African-American rights after the Civil War?
Leni [432]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although you did not attach options for this question we can comment on the following.

The United States government promoted African-American rights after the Civil War in the form of the creation of important legislation.

We are talking about the Civil War Amendments to the United States Constitution, which aimed to enforce equality in the American society after the Civil War and the end of slavery in the Southern states.

Specifically, we are talking about the 13th, 14th, and 15th Amendments to the US Constitution.

In the case of the 13th Amendment, this legislation prohibited slavery in the United States. The only exception was when it was part of a punishment for the commitment of a crime. The 14th Amendment gave citizenship to all African Americans. The 15th Amendment forbade any government in the US to deny people the right to participate in elections due to the color of their skin or race.
