A, Slaves provided much of the labor on plantations that grew cash crops would be the answer I would go with. Most slaves worked in crop fields, and iron working didn't become prominent in the US until the industrial revolution about 10 years after the Civil War. I cannot say I'm 100% certain, but the others to me don't seem to make sense when looking at the situation.

How did Grant fight against the violence of the KKK?
AleksandrR [38]

Answer:Grant against Democrat Horatio Seymour, was crucial. Republicans would continue programs that prevented Southern whites from gaining political control in their states. Klan members knew that given the chance, the blacks in their communities would vote Republican.

Explanation:In the 1868 presidential election, Republican Ulysses S. Grant won the office with the slogan, "Let Us Have Peace." Republicans also won a majority in Congress. Many Northerners, disgusted by Klan violence, lent their support to the Fifteenth Amendment, which gave the vote to black men in every state, and the First Reconstruction Act of 1867, which placed harsher restrictions on the South and closely regulated the formation of their new governments.

(HC) The quote below comes from the Supreme Court ruling in 1963:
marshall27 [118]

Answer: "In all criminal prosecutions, the accused shall enjoy the right to ... have the Assistance of Counsel for his defence."

Explanation:

The Supreme Court in this instance is saying that the right to a legal counsel is a fundamental aspect of the trial process in the United States even if this is not the case in other countries.

The Supreme Court is therefore saying that in all criminal prosecutions, regardless of the heinousness of the crime committed by the accused, they must always have the right to a counsel as this is the only way to ensure a fair trial.

If you could have asked president Hoover about the plight of bank failure victims, what would you ask?
larisa86 [58]

Answer:

Mr. President, considering the fact that the welfare of the citizens is the government's primary responsibility and a huge financial breakdown such as the one the citizens have just experienced can have a devastating effect on the economy and impact negatively on your leadership, don't you think the poor affected citizens deserve some intervention from the government?

Explanation:

From the excerpt, it is clear that the financial crash in the United States Stock market was caused by the greed of investors. However, there were still some hardworking citizens who merely saved their hard-earned monies in the banks, but lost them when the banks closed up. Definitely, they deserved some help from the government.

President Hoover's belief that it was not the function of the government to regulate businesses was flawed as it would be wrong for the government to simply sit by and watch the economy crash.
