1 answer:

6 0

Equal Rights for all during Reconstruction moved forward a bit, but there was still a long way to go. The 13th, 14th, and 15th Amendments were ratified during this time period.

The 13th Amendment: Abolished slavery

The 14th Amendment: Guarantees due process and equality under the law

The 15th Amendment: Right to vote (regardless of race...but not gender)

People called "Radical Republicans" championed forms of equality and helped enact some civil rights acts. They even placed federal troops in the south to protect minorities.

Even the president at the time was not happy with these changes (Andrew Johnson). He tried to veto many bills and was almost taken out of office by way of impeachment.

Once Hayes became president, many of the advancements went to the wayside. Federal troops were removed from the south, abd segregation (Jim Crow) laws came into effect.

Explain the importance of learning language in logic

Dima020 [189]

Answer:

Language is like a way of communication. If you do not have the right word at the right time you cannot express your feelings and your say. In English there are exact words for exact things but in Hindi we repeat same words for many things this is the contraction between two languages for me if I have to say English is a very compact and brief language where you can easily learn new words and some amazing sentences and in English there are some sentences which you can only understand by the logical meaning not by the meaning that is written literally you have to use your own mind your own logic to know the exact meaning. If I write down some sentences

This sentence means that now it is time that we have to or we need to take the decision you can translate it into Hindi and make some nonsense meaning of it .

So language has its own importance logically practically and literally.

It defines legal rights and legal duties as whatever the courts say they are whereas "natural law" treats laws as evolved to reflect the principles found in nature. It’s a body of unchanging moral principles regarded as a basis for all human conduct.
