<span>C. Cuba's communist leaders demanded Soviet military support after U.S.-trained soldiers had invaded Cuba.

The invasion of US-trained soldiers occurred in 1961 -- The Bay of Pigs Invasion.  Cuban exiles trained by the USA's Central Intelligence Agency aimed to overthrow the communist government of Fidel Castro in Cuba, but failed.

Cuba requested that the USSR, as its communist sponsor, place missiles in Cuba to deter further US-sponsored action against the Castro regime.  That request, coupled with the fact of American missiles that were located in Europe, within striking distance of the USSR, prompted Nikita Khrushchev of the USSR to send the missiles to Cuba.

How did the 15th Amendment affect Reconstruction? 4 -6 sentences
maxonik [38]

Answer:

Fifteenth Amendment, amendment (1870) to the Constitution of the United States that guaranteed that the right to vote could not be denied based on “race, color, or previous condition of servitude.” The amendment complemented and followed in the wake of the passage of the Thirteenth and Fourteenth amendments, which abolished slavery and guaranteed citizenship, respectively, to African Americans. The passage of the Fifteenth Amendment and its subsequent ratification (February 3, 1870) effectively enfranchised African American men while denying the right to vote to women of all colors. After the Civil War, during the period known as Reconstruction (1865–77), the amendment was successful in encouraging African Americans to vote. ... Many African Americans were even elected to public office during the 1880s in the states that formerly had constituted the Confederate States of America.
