Why are the late 1800s considered the “nadir” or the lowest point of race relations?

History
1 answer:
almond37 [142]3 years ago
6 0

Historian Rayford Logan introduced the idea that the <em>nadir</em> of American race relations took place from the end of Reconstruction in 1877 until the early 20th century. What he meant was that the social and political conditions of that period, made racial tensions grow throughout the country reaching an all-time peak.

His views have been largely supported, as during those years <u>African Americans lost most civil rights they had gained in the Reconstruction</u>. The black community suffered from physical attacks, institutional segregation, and discrimination by the legal system. Alongside these outrageous conditions, a growing expression of white supremacy started to become the norm. Not only African-Americans suffered the consequences, as <u>the chinese community was also impacted by the same kind of violence</u> and institutionalized racism, culminating in the Chinese Exclusion Act of 1882.

Which of the following factors limited the New England colonies from producing as much food and agricultural goods as the Southe
andreev551 [17]

One of the main factors that limited the New England colonies from producing as much food and agricultural goods as the Southern colonies was the soil. The soil in the North wasn't good for agricultural purposes. It was rocky and infertile, which wasn't ideal for growing crops. Although some of the soil was suitable for growing food, most of it wasn't.

Another factor was the weather. In order to create a good amount of food and agricultural goods, the weather would have to be ideal to do so. The weather in the North was cold and in the winter it would snow, which caused many crops to die. The South was hotter and could handle more crops for growing, it also impacted how the soil was.

In the end, factors like these contributed to the fact that the South was an agricultural place. The Southern states relied on agriculture for their wealth, while the North turned to industrialization for their income.
