The correct answer is C, the court cases goal was to make both colored and white facilities equal in quality.
<em>D. The slave trade was banned in Washington, D.C.</em>
Explanation:
After the Mexican-American War ended, the United States had a lot more territory to deal with. Slavery was always a huge debate during this time, but now that there were more territories, people started to get nervous about how the new territories would be split up into free and slave states.
The Compromise of 1850 were laws and compromises that set the field for the slavery situation in the new territories. These laws tried to be as fair and unbiased as possible, since slavery was controversial during this time.
With these laws, California was now a free state, the slave trade was now prohibited in Washington, D.C, and Texas lost New Mexico, but got money from the government in the process.
Answer:
The Democrats in the south in the late 1800s were united by the goal of preventing black people from voting after the Reconstruction.
Explanation:
Southern Democrats were white men that believed in an equal political policy for all white men (opposed to the supremacy of elites, that is, reduced groups of powerful men). This was called Jacksonian Democracy since it was promoted by the seventh American president Andrew Jackson. However, they did not apply this idea of equality to all men since their goal in the late 1800s was to forbid black people to register and vote <em>after the Reconstruction period</em>. During this period slavery was ended and all former slaves were given certain civil rights. Before this era, especially during the first part of the 1800s, the Democrats promoted the expansion of slavery.
