Answer:

How voting restrictions impacted African Americans during this era.

African Americans were slaves who were brought to America through large vessels from Africa to work on plantations and homes. They were mostly maltreated and killed on very flimsy excuses and whenever it suited their masters.

The slaves eventually began to rebel and it was a hard struggle before they gained their freedom and the government recognized them as citizens.

However, even though they were recognized as citizens, they were denied access to voting which was their right by means such as paying huge amounts of money for poll taxes, disqualifying the black voters on the grounds of illiteracy and outright intimidation and thus tactic was largely successful. A grandfather clause was also set up which stated that unless your grandfather had previously voted, you couldn't vote, and this was impossible for the African Americans because their grandparents were slaves.

However, in the 1930s,a law was eventually passed that granted the African Americans the right to vote without paying poll taxes or taking literary tests

Answer:

The Black Death

Explanation:

The Black Death bascially destroyed Europe, being a fatal disease.  The reason why it was so deadly though was because of how fast it spread.  Animals like rats first got the disease, then it spread to humans.  The diease spread so quickly was because  back then the towns were dirty and crowded, which rats often lived in, which caused rats to make common contact with humans.  

Hope this helps!  :)

MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:

Abolition)

People that were freed from the slave trade started to speak up about their experiences, write books about the things that happened and just overall let people know the brutality of it all. People like William Wilberforce and Frederick Douglass were also big parts of the slave trade abolition.

The actual slave trade)

As the word about the slave trade went around, more and more people were being bought as slaves. Typically people if colour, and people that were all-round poor and couldn't afford a better lifestyle. Some people were born into slavery because their parents were slaves or their parents had debts to pay.
