Answer:

The racial violence used against the African American during these events raised the need to relook at the civil rights amendments.

Explanation:

The Colfax massacre refers to racial bloodshed in the American society in 1873 where a confrontation of a black militia and white extremist groups claimed the lives of around 150 blacks after they surrendered. Memphis Massacre is another example of the racial violence on the American soil in which the lives of 46 blacks and 2 white inhabitants of the region of Memphis was lost.

What issue was addressed by the three-fifths compromise?A) How the slave population would be counted.B) How to regulate trade wi
DaniilM [7]

Your answer would be A) How the slave population would be counted. During the time, there was a big debate on whether or not the slaves in the U.S should be counted towards the whole population of the United States when it comes to voting. People wanted a proper number, or representation, of the amount of people in the U.S that voted. The free men that lived in the U.S has every right to vote, but whenever a Slave votes, their votes would count as only 3/5 of a person. That's where the three-fifths compromise comes from, it decided that slaves could only be 3/5 of a person, meaning that their vote will count as 3/5, but not 1 whole. This means that the slaves who vote don't represent a whole person, and is only partially voting. This made the voting numbers very difficult and inaccurate because a person who's voting can't be only 3/5 of a person. In order for the votes to be more accurate, people believed that everyone, even slaves, should be one whole vote, not 3/5 of a vote.
