History

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.

What did farmers fear Napolean would do if France kept control of Louisiana?
nata0808 [166]

Answer:

The Louisiana Purchase was a land purchase made by United States president, Thomas Jefferson, in 1803. He bought the Louisiana territory from France, which was being led by Napoleon Bonaparte at the time, for 15,000,000 USD. ... Napoleon Bonaparte sold the land because he needed money for the Great French War. At the time, Britain and France were at war in Europe, and if France had not sold Louisiana that war would most likely have spread to North America. Napoleon may have sought to liberate Quebec from British rule, attacking the British in Upper Canada (modern Ontario).
