1 answer:

8 0

The Reconstruction was an important yet turbulent period that followed the Civil War. It lasted from 1865 to 1877 and it aimed to reintegrate the Southern States into the Union. The Reconstruction started with Lincoln but after his Assassination President Andrew Johnson made some rules less strict than before which opened a void which made possible the creation of several Black Codes and Jim Crow Laws. All of this also influenced the creation of the Klan. Due to that, the Congress took over the Reconstruction, a period called Radical Reconstruction. As a response to the Radical Reconstruction, violence erupted and the supremacist organizations started to target leaders and challenge authority.

Answer:

D) A bill of rights should be added to the Constitution

Explanation:

Before the Constitution could be ratified in 1787, Anti-Federalists sprung up. They were concerned that the Constitution didn't protect their rights at all, and were worried that a powerful central government would steal these rights away. As such, a Bill of Rights was demanded to protect the people.

Check Understanding In invalidating preclearance provisions, what larger point was the Supreme Court making about voting rights?

Ksenya-84 [330]

The Supreme Court was affirming the point that states (not the federal government) should be in charge of the voting procedures in their states.

The Supreme Court decision you're referring to, which invalidated pre-clearance conditions, was Shelby County v. Holder (2013). "Pre-clearance" meant that certain states, according to the Voting Rights Acts of 1965, had to get approval in advance from federal authorities for any changes they made to their state regulations regarding voting. That standard had been applied to several states because they had displayed discriminatory practice in their voting laws. The decision in Shelby County v. Holder held that the federal government could not keep applying that requirement on the basis of decades-old data.

I recently posted another answer on Shelby County v. Holder, which you can check out too. Read more on Brainly.com - brainly.com/question/9069264#readmore

What was one reason spain sponsored the first voyage of columbus to the west

Mashcka [7]

Answer:

Keep this little phrase in mind: gold, glory, and God. In that order. The reason the Catholic monarchs Isabella and Ferdinand sponsored Columbus was

gold. They wanted to get rich off of gold, which would enable them to increase their wealth and trading power as per the economic system of mercantilism.
glory. They wanted their names to be famous. Two of the islands that Columbus saw were named after the two rulers (Isabela Island and Fernandina).
God. They were highly Catholic (remember the Spanish Inquisition?) and they wanted to spread that, in theory, to the primitive natives.
