Answer:

The right to vote was not protected by the 14th amendment

Explanation:

Minor was a female suffragette who sought the right to vote. In Minor v. Happersett, Minor argued that the 14th amendment guaranteed her said right to vote. The court disagreed, stating that the Constitution did not define the privileges of citizenship and that a states' decision to only grant men the right to vote was therefore not a violation of the Constitution.

b.) The Gulags were manual labor camps used to control oppression to Stalin and his regime.

Explanation:

The Gulag was the government agencies that establish the labor camps under Vladimir Lenin's rule. This system prospered and reached its peak during the rule of Joseph Stalin and led to many people being sent to these forced labor camps.

The acronym GULAG stands for Glavnoe Upravlenie Lagerei, which roughly translates to Main Camp Administration. This system of maintaining forced labor camps allows the reigning dictator to 'punish' anyone who dares to oppose his authority. Like the Nazi German's concentration camps, these Gulags were a place to hold captive and make people work who oppose Stalin and his ideas of power.
