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.

HELP ASAP PLEASE!!<br> How did the invention of the telegraph affect the civil war?
inna [77]

Answer:The telegraph was invented by Samuel Morse in 1844, and telegraph wires soon sprang up all along the East Coast. During the war, 15,000 miles of telegraph cable was laid purely for military purposes. Mobile telegraph wagons reported and received communications from just behind the frontline. President Lincoln would regularly visit the Telegraph Office to get the latest news. The telegraph also enabled news sources to report on the war in a timely fashion, leading to an entirely new headache for the government: how to handle the media.
