History
1 answer:
LUCKY_DIMON [66]2 years ago
3 0
The Civil War ultimately abolished slavery. Yet black people were never truly free due to the Black Codes. The Black Codes were necessary to keep black people in the labor force which mirrored slavery. This is because after the Civil War when all slaves became free, there was a major labor shortage. The Black Codes drew black people back to working the same cheap labor they did as slaves. They also preserved white supremacy and segregation of America because many people in the south still wanted that. The black codes kept black people enslaved, literally.

9. How did the buildup of savings during the war help prevent a post-war depression?
Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

Explanation:

The buildup of savings did this because it meant that after the war, people would have lots of money saved up that they could use to buy consumer goods.  Once the war ended, the factories would have to turn from producing war materiel to producing consumer goods again.  If people had little money, there would have been little demand for these goods.  But during WWII, people saved a great deal of money.  Once the war ended, they could use that money to buy things like cars that had not been available during the war.  This flurry of buying prevented a depression.
