The civil rights movement

History
1 answer:
IRINA_888 [86]4 years ago
5 0
The Civil Rights movement had it's origins in the aftermath of the US Civil War. 
Despite the Union achieving one of it's primary objectives in the war, the abolition of slavery in the United States, in the decades following the war many US states enacted restrictive and oppressive laws which provided for the segregation of African-American and White Americans. 
Over the 20th century, African-Americans were subject to a wide range of discrimination, from being unable to vote, segregated schools, hospitals and public facilities and were subject to blatant racial profiling.

The Civil Rights movement, which culminated in the Civil Rights Act, was a series of protests and actions by the African-American and allied communities which denounced the oppressive and discriminatory legislation (particularly in the Deep South) which treated African-Americans as second class citizens.

Which of the following is the most significant cause of the economic struggles of the New South?
olga2289 [7]


The best answer is C.

The south depended too much on the plantation system and slave economy which was labor intensive as opposed to the north which was rapidly becoming mechanized , with production of  agricultural products and manufacture of goods  creating a major economic stride forward.

Though they produced two thirds of the world's cotton, the south had little manufacturing capability. They only had about 29% of the railroad tracks and only 13% of the nation's banks.

Free states attracted the vast majority of the waves of European immigrants.  The North had 23 million people as compared to 9 million in the south which negatively impacted the southern economy but positively impacted the northern economy.
