The usual elections were held by state legislation, so the few chosen members were based off what the state(s) legislators deemed as qualified. Then came the 17th amendment that gave the rights of choosing to the people, but this was didn't happen till 1913. So you can eliminate it to 2 options, <u>B and C</u>. It's depends what year. ;) I would personaly choose <u>B</u>.

Hope I helped. :)

Which was a new political party formed by southerners who hoped to heal the split between the North and South?
Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

Southern Democratic Party

Explanation:

Towards the 1860 Presidential election, the Democratic party was split into two between North and South forming new political parties known as Northern Democratic Party and Southern Democratic Party.

The main reason for the split was based on the issue of slavery, where the Northern part is anti-slavery, and the southern part is pro-slavery.

Hence, in this case, the correct answer is "Southern Democratic Party."

Drag and drop the causes and effects of the Great Migration to the correct boxes. Use each answer once.
Mrac [35]

Answer:

Jim Crow laws - Cause

Jim Crow laws were laws in the Southern States that disenfranchised African Americans, made segregation legal, gave support to hate organizations like the KKK, and reduced their economic opportunities. Jim Crow Laws were one of the main motivations for African Americans to migrate to the Northeast and the Midwest.

More segregated  neighborhoods in  the North - Effect

Most African Americans emigrated to low-income neighborhoods of urban areas in the Northern states. As soon as they began to move in, most white people left, as some government policies like redlining also promoted this increased segregation.

Harlem Renaissance - Effect

The Harlem Renaissance was an African American cultural movement that emerged in the Harlem neighborhood of Manhattan during the first decades of the XX century. It was caused by the Great Migration due to the large number of black people who moved there during this period.

Violence toward African Americans - Cause

Violence toward African Americans in the South was common during and after the Reconstruction Era. Lynchings and hangings were common, and supported by the authorities. This was one of the main motivations for African Americans to migrate to the North.
