The 15th Amendment to the Constitution granted African American men the right to vote by declaring that the "right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any state on account of race, color, or previous condition of servitude." Although ratified on February 3, 1870, the promise of the 15th Amendment would not be fully realized for almost a century. Through the use of poll taxes, literacy tests and other means, Southern states were able to effectively disenfranchise African Americans. It would take the passage of the Voting Rights Act of 1965 before the majority of African Americans in the South were registered to vote.

Answer:
In the excerpt Walt Whitman suggests that <u><em>human beings continue to exist after death through the people they know</em></u> because <em><u>the remains of the dead are absorbed into the soil and continue to nourish life</u></em>.
Explanation:
Walt Whitman's poem "Song of Myself" is a celebration of the self and how an individual becomes one with nature. The poet delves into the idea of discovering one's self, identification of one's self with that of others, and the relationship with the universe and nature.
In the given lines of poetry taken from the 6th part of the poem, the poet talks of what happens to life after one dies. He questions<em> "What has become of the young and old men? / And what has become of the women and children?"</em> And he responds, "<em>All goes onward and outward, nothing collapses, / And to die is different from what anyone supposed, and luckier."</em>
This shows that Whitman believes human beings do not die or vanish completely. Rather, they continue to exist after death through the people they know, and that the remains of the dead are absorbed into the soil and continue to nourish life.
1. D. Inca settlements were difficult to find and reach because they were build at high altitudes on rough terrain.
Inca civilizations were well hidden and protected from outside influences due to their location high in the Andes Mountains of South America. It took the Spanish a while to find them, though diseases reached the outlying settlements even when the Spanish did not.

The Maya civilization experienced a lengthy and extreme drought that led to widespread starvation, which reduced their population and influence over the region long before Europeans arrived in Mesoamerica.
