Wich type of speech is given the strongest protection under the constitution

Kryger [21]

The answer is political speech

We as Americans are allowed to criticize our government without any punishment this plays into our freedom of speech (First Amendment). Other countries do not have this type of protection and we should be thankful to be able to criticize our own government without punishment or repercussions.

Why was the Freedmen’s Bureau established?

Allisa [31]

Answer:

$\boxed {\boxed {\sf A. \ To \ provide \ freedmen \ with \ healthcare \ and \ education}}$

Explanation:

After the Civil War and 13th Amendment, slavery was abolished from the United States. This left 4 million former slaves or freedmen to fend for themselves while looking for jobs, homes, and educations during the period of Reconstruction.

The Freedmen's Bureau was created by the government to help the freedmen transition. They helped tons of former slaves through meals, healthcare, labor contracts, and the building/funding of schools and colleges.

They attempted to redistribute land (choice C) but most efforts were unsuccessful and it wasn't the main purpose. It was not created for suffrage (choice B) or to help prospective politicians (choice D). This leaves choice A as the best answer.
