Answer:

Constructing small houses on the land to meet the qualifications, is the correct answer.

Explanation:

The Homestead Act of May 1862 provided the opportunity to settle in the Western part of the U.S. All Americans and released slaves could maintain up to 160 free acres of national property.

Were the Alien and Sedition Acts constitutional or unconstitutional? Did they follow the meaning of the Constitution or did they

lidiya [134]

The Alien and Sedition Acts were unconstitutional as it limited free speech, which is guaranteed in the first Amendment. If the individual states chose to nullify the acts, that would be a sign of rebellion. I do not think that the US should institute forms of the Alien and Sedition Act. It's America. The people here should be free to say what they want to say.

What change in the South during Reconstruction most likely resulted in the rise of organizations such as

Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

B) African Americans gained more rights and influence in society

Explanation:

Well, first, you need to know what the KKK was/is. The KKK was a group of white people who used violence against black people because of their racist ways.

Next, you need to look and the answers and find the answers that would obviously be against black people. In this case, we can eliminate answers A and D.

Now we only have B and C to look at. Let's look at C first: The Freedmen's Bureau was created in March of 1865, while the KKK was founded in December of 1865. While it may be possible this was the cause, it is unlikely because of how far apart the dates are. Now let's look and B: Although the Freedmen's Bureau was created in March of 1865, it may have took a little bit for African Americans to start to gain more rights and influence. Once the KKK started to realize that they were gaining rights, they founded their clan and begun to use violence to stop this. :)
