The short-term effects of Jim Crow Laws in the south were: Legal codes of segregation, enacted literacy requirements, voter-registration laws, poll taxes.

The long-term effects were: Segregation until the late 20th century, allowed for racial injustices and prejudices to remain and thrive, despite the 14th amendment.

The sharecropping system was so hard to overcome because it was economically confined, controlled by landlords and kept in debt.

African Americans were worse off after civil war. They were still treated as inhuman and undeserving of basic rights, especially in the deep south, the 14th and 15th amendments were not upheld and the enforcement of Jim Crow laws worsened the situation. Even though the country was moving in the right direction, it was a long time before quality of life really improved for most African Americans.

Describe how the roman government fell. need asap hurry please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 44 points.

There were a number of reasons that the Roman Empire fell.  By the 5th century A.D., the Romans experienced repeated invasions by Germanic tribes who were constantly encroaching on its borders. Internally, the empire suffered from overspending and unfair taxation. Their was also an increasing gulf between the rich and poor. The Romans depended on slaves and the supply significantly declined. These problems were compounded by the rise of the Eastern Roman Empire in Byzantium. At first, it allowed the empire to be administered more efficiently but the two eventually drifted apart due to differences in religious expression and ideology. The two sections also failed to work together to stop outside encroachment. Governmental corruption and instability caused a number of problems as well. The rise of Christianity and the weakening of the military structure has also been viewed as one of the reasons why the Roman Empire fell.

How and why did the U.S. government reinforce nativist attitudes during the 1920s?
AnnyKZ [126]
<span>The U.S. government supported nativist attitudes during the 1920's due to the rising levels of nationalist sentiment that was growing within the American population. The outcome of WWI and other related events had shifted popular opinion well in that direction. As a means of supporting these positions, the government issued the Emergency Immigration Act of 1921 and National Origins Act of 1924, pieces of legislation which imposed quotas on the allowable levels of immigration from certain European nations.</span>
