Black codes attempted to restrict freedom and get African Americans into labor because of their low wages and/or debt. Jim Crow Laws were racial segregation laws. Plessy v. Ferguson is a Supreme Court case that racially segregated public places

In the Plessy v. Ferguson Case (1896), the Supreme Court allowed the doctrine of "separate but equal" to continue stating that racially segregated public facilities were legal because they did not imply any inequality toward African Americans: they were consistent to the doctrine of "separate but equal." However, in reality, segregation laws did not provide equal protection or liberties to non-whites: the segregated facilities were unequal and violated the equal protection of the laws stated in the 14th Amendment.

The "Jim Crow" laws (1877-1950's) also discriminated against African-Americans, these were a series of restrictions on black civil right designed to prevent African Americans from gaining equality. The statutes prohibited African American to attend and be in certain places where white people were such as neighborhoods, restrooms, building entrances, elevators, cemeteries, amusement-park, cashier windows, hospitals, jails, etc.

Lastly, the Black Codes were laws passed in 1865 and 1866 after slavery was abolished, however, they are considered a form of slavery because they compelled African Americans to work for very low wages and legally considered them vagrants if they were found unemployed; besides if they were seen as vagrant, they could be arrested, fined, and bound out for a term of labor if unable to pay the fine.

Based on the magazines, what can you infer about the role of women during the 19th century in Britain?
vova2212 [387]

Answer:

Antes de profundizar en el tema de la mujer en el siglo XVIII, es imprescindible situar al ser

humano, y para ello citar los principales acontecimientos importantes del siglo anterior, que

tuvieron mucha influencia en el Siglo de las Luces y en la formación de su pensamiento.

Francia se erige como potencia política tras la revolución de 1789; Inglaterra marca un hecho

histórico: sus guerras civiles con la victoria de los liberales y la caída del absolutismo, harán que se

convierta en referente para todos los liberales de Europa. Holanda se convierte en modelo de

tolerancia religiosa y política.

En lo que se refiere a acontecimientos culturales y filosóficos, es importante citar a Spinoza1

, que

construye un pensamiento moderno que aboga por la necesidad de la tolerancia y la libertad

religiosa en los estados modernos. De Leibniz 2

es interesante su pensamiento filosófico del

optimismo, y el principio de razón suficiente. Por citar alguno más, de Newton es fundamental su

método de investigación, profundamente revolucionario, que se convierte en el modelo científico de

todo el siglo XVIII, eliminando toda la metodología anterior.

Los ilustrados defienden que puesto que la razón es un elemento global, es posible mediante el

diálogo llegar a acuerdos y a verdades útiles. En este momento la razón se convierte en el motor del

progreso humano. Parte de la experiencia de los sentidos, y a través del análisis de la realidad llega

a los primeros principios. Estos pensadores, a diferencia de los pensadores del XVII, no buscan ya

verdades eternas, renuncian a estos primeros principios y se conforman con una verdad más

material y provisional. No se trata de buscar una verdad que revele la verdad más profunda del ser,

sino una verdad con la que se pueda estar de acuerdo.

Which statement best describes working conditions in the mills in the 1800s A. Workers were fed three times and their health was
defon

Answer:

B. Some workers suffered from health problems such as chronic cough due to unsafe conditions.

Explanation:

The 1800s was a year that saw the First Industrial Revolution. This revolution brought about new processes and methods of producing and manufacturing.

An with that, the working conditions were as terrible and brutal as they can be. While adults were made to work in big factories with machines in a crowded space, with hardly enough pay and unhealthy atmospheres, children were also hired for their cheap labor.

So, the statement that best describes the working conditions in the mills in the 1800s was that <u>some workers suffered from health problems like cough due to the unsafe working conditions.</u>
