Obviously mermaids are not real, I thought the school was only suppose to teach you real things or fake things but any way the main idea is that she was able to find her parents in the shore and live happily ever after

The conditions in the South during Reconstruction

Even though Southern states rejoined the Union and agreed to the 13th amendment (which outlawed the institution of slavery), the South looked very similar to what it did before the Civil War started. Even though African Americans were technically free, many of them still worked on plantations. There work on plantations was under the system known as sharecropping. Sharecropping is a system in which a person leases land from a farm owners. In return, the worker promises to give land owners a share of their crop. This system resulted in strict labor contracts. Ultimately, this system would tie African Americans to plantations as plantation owners used loopholes within the contract to keep their tenants from finding other opportunities.

Along with this, African Americans were still treated horribly in the South. The development of the Ku Klux Klan, a white supremacist organization, resulted in the beating and killing of thousands of African American citizens. This group was created in order to strike fear in the hearts of African American citizens and to prevent them from using their newly gained rights (like the right for men to vote).

Lastly, the South would continue to treat African Americans as inferior by the implementation of black codes and Jim Crow laws. These laws allowed for the development of segregated public and private facilities.

How are isolationism and nativism related in the 1920s what actions did americans take that revealed their distrust of others?
Scilla [17]

Isolationists were people who pulled away from involvement in foreign affairs. This mainly happened after WWI. U.S.A did not want to become involved with the League of Nations.The League of Nations was a group of countries that tried to create world peace. The Americans did not want to be entangled into another war with the Germans. 
 ativism is a term that is used to mean the opposition of immigration. Nativism favored the primary race of the country (White). This was a post WWI trend. Millions of Europeans were seeking to immigrate in other parts of the world and many of them tried to come to the United States. Many Americans mainly did not like the Germans because they started the war. Many Americans were nativists and had prejudices 
 Against the German people.   
The Emergency Quota Act was a movement that limited the number of immigrants each year that emigrated to the U.S. All of these topics affected politics in the 1920’s, especially the Quota System. This favored all western Europeans and created a drop in immigrations for the U.S. The Americans did not play any German music. Also, they wouldn’t allow the Americans to speak German.
