Answer:

Literacy Tests

Explanation:

Because of the passing of the 15th Amendment by Congress which allowed for voting regardless of race, people of color, especially African - Americans poured into ballot locations to place their first votes. White Southerners didn't like that, so they turned to the state governments who decided to make all voters pass a literacy test before they could vote. As to avoid violating the Constitution by forcing only African - Americans to take it, it was given to all races, but most who oversaw the voting process allowed some whites to skip the tests and go right on to the ballot boxes.

This was a time when very few African - Americans had an education and could barely read, so the test was already difficult. To add injury to that, the questions were sometimes asked in another language or were questions only answered by someone of high degree. Even those who did get it right were sometimes lied to about their score and if they missed one question, they couldn't retake it and were sent out.

Vote Brainliest, Thx :)

Abraham Lincoln won the elections and became President of the United States. The Southern states knew that this would be its worst nightmare. They did not support abolition because their economies depended too much on slavery. The states that seceded were South Carolina, Alabama, Mississippi, Florida, Louisiana, Georgia, and Texas. They formed the Confederate States and the War began.

After the war, the northern states became very industrialized, meanwhile in the South, Lincoln first, and then President Jackson initiated the Reconstruction period to try to help the South that resulted in much damage and losses.

Would you agree with the view that the message of Universal rights was
harina [27]

Answer:

Yes, the message of Universal rights was not in support of the women in France.

Explanation:

In 1948, the General Assembly of the United Nations declared openly the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, involving 30 rights and freedoms.

The declaration says, among other things, "law is the expression of the general will. All citizens have the right to participate in its formation…All citizens are equal before it."

In contrast, France, at the time when they are operating a constitutional monarchy, had an estimated three million nationals unable to pay the due tax, involving men, women, and those below the age of 25years were restricted from the voting process.
