3 0

Yurovsky, the executioner of the Russian Imperial Family, left a detailed account of the events that transcurred on the night of July 16th, 1918, when the Romanov family was assassinated. In it, he describes the scene with the tsar Nicholas II in the following way:

"...so far as I can remember, I said to Nicholas approximately this: His royal and close relatives inside the country and abroad were trying to save him, but the Soviet of Workers' Deputies resolved to shoot them. He asked "What?" and turned toward Alexei. At that moment I shot him and killed him outright. He did not get time to face us to get an answer."

What was part of the Wade-Davis Bill proposed by Radical Republicans?
Allisa [31]

Answer:

See explanation.

Explanation:

The Wade-Davis Bill required a much heavier standard for Southern states to be re-admitted into the Union after the Civil War. This included an "ironclad oath," made by at least 50% of Southern voters in each state that they had both never supported the Confederacy and that they swore full loyalty to the Union.

This was in opposition to Lincoln's 10% Plan, which only aimed to require that 10% of voters per state swear loyalty to the Union.

What act removed the barriers of voting 1965 and increased the participation of black voters?
enot [183]
The act is called the Voting Rights Act of 1965.

This act, signed into law by Lyndon B. Johnson, helped to remove legal barriers that African-Americans faced when it came to voting. For example, African-Americans were unfair targets of things like literacy tests, poll taxes, and the grandfather clause. All three of these barriers were put in place to limit the amount of African-American citizens voting in local, state, and national elections.

This law ensured that African-Americans received the same protection guaranteed to them under the 15th amendment.
