History

4 0

Answer:

Black codes were enacted right after the Civil War.

Explanation:

Black Codes were laws created by former Confederate states after the Civil War to weaken the status of blacks in those states. Laws began to be created in 1865 with the passage of the 13th Amendment to the Constitution in the United States, which officially liberated all black slaves.

Black Codes had time to be created for more than a year before Congress, with a Republican party opposed to slavery in the majority, passed the Civil Rights Act and the 14th and 15th Amendments to the Constitution. In the late 1870s, however, the position of blacks weakened again as racist extremism, led by the Ku Klux Klan, intensified.

What were the major points of disagreement between the federalist and the anti-federalists regarding the U.S. constitution? How
QveST [7]

The differences between the Federalists and the Antifederalists are vast and at times complex. Federalists’ beliefs could be better described as nationalist. The Federalists were instrumental in 1787 in shaping the new US Constitution, which strengthened the national government at the expense, according to the Antifederalists, of the states and the people. The Antifederalists opposed the ratification of the US Constitution, but they never organized efficiently across all thirteen states, and so had to fight the ratification at every state convention. Their great success was in forcing the first Congress under the new Constitution to establish a bill of rights to ensure the liberties that the Antifederalists felt the Constitution violated.

The Bill of Rights is a list of 10 constitutional amendments that secure the basic rights and privileges of American citizens. They include the right to free speech, the right to a speedy trial, the right to due process under the law, and protections against cruel and unusual punishments. To accommodate Anti-Federalist concerns of excessive federal power, the Bill of Rights also reserves any power that is not given to the federal government to the states and to the people.

Since its adoption, the Bill of Rights has become the most important part of the Constitution for most Americans. In Supreme Court cases, the Amendments are debated more frequently than the Articles. They have been cited to protect the free speech of Civil Rights activists, protect Americans from unlawful government surveillance, and grant citizens Miranda rights during arrest. It is impossible to know what our republic would look like today without the persistence of the Anti-Federalists over two hundred years ago.

which two phrases from the text best support the answers to part A from excerpt from civil disobedience
vlabodo [156]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Unfortunately, your question is incomplete. You did not include the text. Without the text, we do not have the information to answer your question. Yo did not include a link to the text, or the name of the author. So we do not know what is included in "Part A."

However, trying to help you, we can assume you are talking about the famous essay "Civil Disobedience," written by Henry David Thoreau, in 1849.

As we do not know what is the excerpt and knowing that the essay is too long, we are going to comment on the following general terms.

It is probably that the two ideas that you are looking at in the essay are:

"Individuals have a responsibility to disobey laws that are inherently unjust and in conflict with their morals," and "Citizens must challenge and attempt to change the wrongs of the state; it is not enough to work within the system."

The sentences that serve as evidence are <em>“…but if it is of such a nature that it requires you to be the agent of injustice to another, then, I say, break the law,”</em> and <em>“Let your life be a counter-friction to stop the machine… As for adopting the ways which the State has provided for remedying the evil, I know not of such ways.”</em>

Thoreau was a rebel of his time. He heavily opposed the institution of slavery and he also expressed his opposition to the Mexican-American War.  That is why he wrote his essay "Civil Disobediencei" in 1849, inviting the American people to reflect on his behavior and conduct against unjust laws and the wrongdoings of politicians.
