Answer:

Price of cotton

Explanation:

The prices of slaves in Antebellum America rose and fell along with the price cotton because most slave labour were used in the production of cotton production. Therefore, the rise in the price of cotton causes an increase in the demand of slaves and when cotton price falls, the demand for slaves also decreases.

The wealthy planter of cotton ensured that slave property was exempt from taxation.

Cotton has a long growing season. Slaves plowed the land in March, seeded in early April, and had to chop away the surrounding grasses once the plants began to grow. Then in August, the four-month long picking season began.

How did the Supreme Court erode (destroy) the rights of African Americans?
Anton [14]
After the Civil War, 4 million former slaves were looking for social equality and economic opportunity. It wasn't clear initially whether they would enjoy full-fledged citizenship or would be subjugated by the white population.

In the 1860s, it was the Republican Party in Washington — the home of former abolitionists — that sought to grant legal rights and social equality to African-Americans in the South. The Republicans — then dubbed radical Republicans — managed to enact a series of constitutional amendments and reconstruction acts granting legal equality to former slaves — and giving them access to federal courts if their rights were violated.

The 13th Amendment, which was ratified in 1865, abolished slavery. Three years later, the 14th Amendment provided blacks with citizenship and equal protection under the law. And in 1870, the 15th Amendment gave black American males the right to vote.

Five years later, Congress passed the Civil Rights Act of 1875, a groundbreaking federal law proposed by Republican Sen. Charles Sumner of Massachusetts, which guaranteed that everyone in the United States was "entitled to the full and equal enjoyment" of public accommodations and facilities regardless of race or skin color.
