Answer:

Disenfranchisement

Explanation:

After years of Reconstruction and after a series of initiatives that were taken to protect the right to vote by African Americans, many Southern states started the process called “Disenfranchisement”. The Disenfranchisement process began with a decision by the US Supreme Court in the case US v. Reese and US v. Cruikshank, after those decisions it was decided that protecting voting rights was the responsibility of state government, not the Federal Government.

After that, many Southern States limited the voting rights of African Americans, the methods were using poll taxes, determining literacy tests, violence or even the refusal to count certain votes.

How did congress support factories that converted to war production?
Darya [45]
They supported by ensuring that those workers would get higher pay, as well as promising that the state would in turn help the company once the war is over. It was like the war bonds thing but more complex as it involved companies and not regular people.
