What did the U.S. Congress do to invalidate the Black Codes passed by southern state legislatures after the Civil War?

Hi there!

The passage of the Black Codes in many southern states enraged both northerners and African Americans across the country. In response, Congress passed the Civil Rights Act over president Andrew Johnson's veto as well as the Reconstruction Act of 1867. These acts effectively outlawed discrimination on basis of race and granted equal rights to all under the Constitution. They also guaranteed that a citizen's right to vote could not be denied "on account of race, color, or previous condition of servitude." All of these actions effectively invalidated the Black Codes. However, the road to reconstruction was still a long and rocky one.

Do you believe the president should be limited to two terms?
Reika [66]

I belive that the president should have two terms because if the president had infinite terms, he would more of a pharoah and therefore turn into a monarchy rather than a democracy.

I really hope this helps you. I cannot confirm this answer but good luck anyway!
