History

Answer:

Explanation:

This was not the case. Segregation and Jim Crowe laws still persisted well after the end of slavery. African Americans were treated as second class citizens and were denied  many of their rights even after the passage of the 15th amendment. Many people tried to deny them of their voting rights through poll taxes and literacy tests. Many states tried to use the "grandfather clause" which aimed to keep descendants of slaves from participating in elections. There was no "separate but equal" for African Americans after Reconstruction.

Answer:

Separate but Equal was simply an excuse for continued segregation and racism, not an end to it. Therefore, it is false. Blacks still faced terrible treatment and were seen as the dirt of civilization, instead of humans just like everybody else.

explain whether you think that the individual protection regarding religion found in the 1st amendment are more important today
labwork [276]

Answer: "The First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution protects the freedom of speech, religion and the press. It also protects the right to peaceful protest and to petition the government. The amendment was adopted in 1791 along with nine other amendments that make up the Bill of Rights – a written document protecting civil liberties under U.S. law. The meaning of the First Amendment has been the subject of continuing interpretation and dispute over the years. Landmark Supreme Court cases have dealt with the right of citizens to protest U.S. involvement in foreign wars, flag burning and the publication of classified government documents."
