The Reconstructionists refused to give Blacks land after the civil war due to the Black codes that were passed during that time to limit the freedom of African Americans and to make them work as cheap labor after the end of civil war.

Explanation:

  • Though the Union victory gave four million slaves their freedom, the status of the blacks in the south was questioned.
  • Prohibition of blacks from holding any other occupation other than farmer or servant unless they were willing to pay an annual tax up to 100$ and this law was proposed in South Carolina.
  • Under Johnson’s Reconstruction policies, black codes were enacted in all southern states during the period of 1865 to 1866. The codes also granted certain freedoms to African Americans which includes,
  1. The right to purchase and own properties their choice
  2. Marry
  3. Make contracts
  4. Testify in court.
  • The Primary purpose of this code was to restrict the blacks their freedom.
  • Limiting the types of properties for the blacks was also a rule that was passed on at that time.
  • All  the former Confederate states passed strict labor contract laws, and “anti enticement” measures to punish anyone who offered higher wages to a black laborer already under contract.

Marina86 [1]

After almost two thousand years of life in the scattering, the Jews began to return to Israel after the Second World War. It was preceded by many agreements, promises, that by the decision of the UN, the Jews would be allowed to form their own state in Palestine. Of course this did not go without conflicts and struggle, because the Arabs who had already lived in Palestine claimed that Palestine had been their land for many centuries, calling on mosques that exist on the hill of the temple. On the other hand, the Jews claimed that Palestine was actually Israel, their promised land according to the Bible, and called for a crying wall, the remains of the Jewish temple, which according to the Bible existed before the Arabs were in Palestine.

The answer is: Jews and Arabs.
