Answer:
False
There are 24 not 23
Explanation:
The Catholic Church is actually composed of 24 churches — one Latin (Roman), which comprises perhaps 98% of all Catholics worldwide, and 23 "Eastern" or “Oriental” churches.
Catholics also follow the teachings of Jesus Christ but do so through the church, whom they consider as the path to Jesus. They believe in the special authority of the Pope which other Christians may not believe in, whereas Christians are free to accept or reject individual teachings and interpretations of the bible.
The Roman Catholic Church, which has over 1.3 billion members–slightly over half of all Christians worldwide–does not view itself as a denomination, but as the original pre-denominational Church, a view rejected by other Christians. Protestant denominations account for approximately 37 percent of Christians worldwide.
There were many problems,
First, although they were technically 'free', there was little work in the war-tattered south, other than the very plantations from which these people were emancipated.
Secondly, they had no money or assets in most cases. Many began on the long migration of poor African Americans from the south to the industrial north, which continued through the 1970s.
The biggest problem, however, was the ongoing discrimination they faced. Jim Crow Laws throughout the south enforced segregation in public places, and most remained in place until the 1960s Civil Rights Movement ultimately resulted in Federal legislation negating most (unconstitutional) segregation laws.
Hope this helped!
