olganol [36]

Specific things that surprise about the legal restrictions on African Americans in the antebellum period were;

• Blacks in the southern parts who were free continued to live under slavery

• Freed African American actively participated in the American society like joining soldiers

• Free blacks purchased slaves that were relatives

• African Americans also participated in attaining freedom of others

  • Slaves could not marry under the southern law

During this period slavery and cotton were the main drivers of the southern economy. The slaves were undergoing arbitrary power abuse from the whites. Through coping family structures and community networks slaves developed a way of accommodating their conditions. Christianity and songs also helped slaves to develop a solace.

Which is necessary for a society to be considered a civilization?
Kisachek [45]
The correct answer in my opinion would be that D is the most important factor here. But this question is quite tricky.

We can surely say for example that literature, organized schools and a hierarchy of priests are not something that constitute a civilization. Organized schools appeared to late, not every civilization had literature and having only a hierachy of priests is not enough to say you have a civilizaton.

Labor has been divided in pre-civilization hunter-gatherer societies as well. 

For that reason I'd say the correct answer is D - more food than is needed for survival. Having this, the people in a certain group can focus on other things.
