Nature helped early american settlements to survive the harsh winter
A) Rousseau
Rousseau strongly believed that man was better of in his natural state.
After the passing of the 13th Amendment of the Constitution, the African American community expected the following gains:
1. An end to legal Slavery, which did happen very quickly.
2. Many, for the first time, free of slavery could travel to meet loved ones and find jobs in other parts of the country.
3. An independent development of a thriving black culture, church, music etc.
However, the African American population were not able to win universal suffrage and still struggled for over a century with the problem of legalized segregation.
