Answer:

c. granting rights to African Americans.

Explanation:

According to a different source, these are the options that come with this question:

a. extending suffrage to Southern women.

b. reforming the sharecropping system.

c. granting rights to African Americans.

d. protecting rights of Southerners accused of treason.

These amendments are collectively known as the Reconstruction Amendments. These include the Thirteenth, Fourteenth and Fifteenth amendments to the Constitution. These were adopted between 1865 and 1870, immediately following the Civil War. The main purpose of these was to ensure that the liberties given to African Americans were protected by law. They were also meant to provide equal protection under the law to the newly freed slaves.

Answer:

Taxes

Explanation:

Hi there,

Since the British were low on money after fighting the French and Indian War (1754 - 1763), they King George and other British officials thought it would be a good idea to tax the colonists. Obviously, the colonists were unhappy about being taxed by a monarchy that was several thousand miles away. They also did not have any representation in the British Parliament to voice their dissent about the taxes. So, they began to refuse paying taxes under the clause "taxation without representation". The colonist's refusal to be taxed by the British government eventually became one of the factors that caused the American Revolution. Taxation was one of the many things the colonists disliked about King George and the British government.

Hope this answer is useful. Cheers.

yanalaym [24]
The Soviets were setting up nuclear missiles in Cuba. This meant that they were now able in theory to launch a nuclear missile directly at large parts of the USA and it was therefore viewed as a threat by the USA. I hope that helps.
