The 14th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, ratified in 1868, granted citizenship to all persons born or naturalized in the United States—including former slaves—and guaranteed all citizens “equal protection of the laws.”The 14th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution was one of the three Reconstruction Amendments which, along with the 13th and 15th, was primarily intended to establish equal civil rights for former slaves. It was passed by Congress on June 13, 1866, and ratified by the states as of July 9, 1868.

How was Billy Graham an influential social leader in the United States

Artyom0805 [142]

Graham gave a new dimension to Christianity, in his speeches he used to explain faith as a kind of self-denial. But what made him a great leader was the idea of a unified Christian church, without different denominations, since all serve one God. This caused a revolution in American Protestant Christianity which made Grahan more and more influential to the point of being invited to speak in Communist countries and to be a spiritual council of such great politicians as Queen Elizabeth II, George W Bush, Richard Nixon , among others .

His success was so great that he was the first religious leader to be honored at the capitol of the United States of America
