The 15th Amendment to the Constitution granted African American men the right to vote by declaring that the "right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any state on account of race, color, or previous condition of servitude." Although ratified on February 3, 1870, the promise of the 15th Amendment would not be fully realized for almost a century. Through the use of poll taxes, literacy tests and other means, Southern states were able to effectively disenfranchise African Americans. It would take the passage of the Voting Rights Act of 1965 before the majority of African Americans in the South were registered to vote.

This is the type of question, that you should really write yourself... Everyone has a different writing style.
Start off by defining all 5 of the terms.
Then, do a little recap on what you know on the terms. (EX: Boycott: Who boycotted? What did they boycott? Why did they boycott? etc)
Decide what your tone for the paragragh is going to be. ( Are you going to write a funny, fictional story about the colonies? or are you going to write an informational pparagraph about the colonies?
Hope this helps.... If you have any questions let me kow. :D

However, more than 70% of all immigrants reached New York City, which became known as the "Golden Door." Most immigrants arriving in New York came to the Castle Garden depot near the tip of Manhattan in the late 1800s.
In that time period it called the era of good feelings because James did an amazing job during that period. he also made political differences to disappear and federalist party seemed almost nonexistent.
Hope this helps
A major cause of the Protestant Reformation was the sale of indulgences by the Catholic Church. Martin Luther began early in his writings criticizing this practice in saying that the Pope had no authority or right to sell this type of indulgence.
