To understand the end of Reconstruction, it's important to take the following facts into account:
- 1872: The General Amnesty Act was passed by the Congress. This act removed restrictions placed upon Confederate officials.
- 1873: the Fourteenth Amendment was scarcely interpreted in the Slaughterhouse cases. This meant that state law was violationg individuals' civil rights.
- 1875: The Civil Rights Act of this year, which allowed black people to be part of a jury and which didn't allow racial discrimination in public places, was eventually not enforced.
- Finally in 1876 the idea of the Reconstruction was left aside by both parties and in 1883 the Civil Rights Act was declared unconstitutional.
All of these reasons, caused the end of the Reconstruction and made Republicans forsake black people, finally causing the infringement of civil rights and full segregation.
Most Mayan art was religious in nature. Maya's didn't really care much
for politics, military, or economy as much as they cared for religion.
They were a polytheistic nation, meaning that they believed in many gods
to help them with their everyday life. So, everything they created
artistically had something to do with religion, because it was such an
important part of their life.

The Federal government finally tried to help stem the tide of the Great Depression in the form of the New Deal, which was initiated by FDR and increased the scope of government.
Dear Grand Daughter
I don't know if I will still be there when you get a chance to read this letter.
Things must have changed a lot by the time you read this.
I am an old man already, and belong to a different time. In our era, large and extended families loved together and loved each other. However, I already see large families breaking up and everyone being very individualistic, something I detest.
However, I have seen some amazing changes take place in front of me. I saw the development and growth of Radio, Telephone, Airplanes, Movies and TV! And I can't imagine the things you would see in your time.
Just remember one thing my love, change is the only constant in life. Never feel bad about it! Embrace it and you will be successful, if you avoid it, you will only Perish
I hope you find this letter in a time and place where you feel the happiest and I only wish the best for you
Yours truly
Your Grand dad
