Answer:

<h2>Lincoln's Reconstruction Plan</h2>

a. What date did Lincoln issue his proclamation of amnesty?

December 8, 1863

b. What were the three parts of his plan?

1. Disagreements with the Union and traitors to the union would be justified.

2. Their rights as citizens would be restored if they claimed allegiance to the Union.

3. All of the south's property would be given back except for slaves.

c. How would you describe Lincoln’s plans for dealing with the South? Would you consider it a lenient policy or strict? Explain your answer.

I'd say it's a lenient policy. The south, also the confederates, wanted to keep the institution of owing slaves, while the union opposed slavery. Enslaving innocent human beings is wrong, and they wanted to do that. So the punishment that they got was merciful, and they didn't suffer the same fate as their slaves.

<h2>Johnson's Plan for Reconstruction</h2>

(Please share the political cartoon in order for the questions to be answered)

<h2>Freedmen's Bureau</h2>

a. Describe the purpose of the Freedmen’s Bureau

The Freedmen's Bureau was made to help southerner's who were displaced, and it also helped African Americans who were newly freed, providing them with food, shelter, clothing, medical help, and land.

What benefits did it offer?

Food, shelter, clothing, medical help, and land.

<h2>Sharecropping</h2>

a. What happened to land in the South following the Civil War?

During the civil war, a big portion of land in the South was destroyed, and that's what led to the Reconstruction Act of 1867.

<h2>Jim Crow Era</h2>

a. What were three ways Southerners tried to disrupt African Americans from voting.

Grandfather clause, Poll Tax, and Literacy Tax.

b. Explain how the poll tax and literacy tests were not a violation of the 15th amendment.

The Poll Tax and Literacy Tests were admited to all voters, people who weren't white were not as educated as white people, which caused them to not have the education to get jobs and provide money and that's why it made the Poll Tax a disadvantage.

c. What law was finally passed in 1965 which abolished Jim Crow era voting laws? What did it say?

The Voting Rights Act. It said that the rights of people would not be held against them just because of the color of their skin.

Answer:

<u><em>Lincoln's Reconstruction Plan</em></u>

a)  On December 8, 1863, President Abraham Lincoln offers his conciliatory plan for reunification of the United States with his Proclamation of Amnesty and Reconstruction.

b)  Blockade of the southern coastline.

Take control of the Mississippi River.

Take Richmond Virginia.

c)  Lincoln's blueprint for Reconstruction included the Ten-Percent Plan, which specified that a southern state could be readmitted into the Union once 10 percent of its voters (from the voter rolls for the election of 1860) swore an oath of allegiance to the Union. Lincoln wanted to end the war quickly.

<u><em>Johnson's Plan for Reconstruction</em></u>

a)  A political cartoon is a cartoon that makes a point about a political issue or event.

b)  Pardons would be granted to those taking a loyalty oath.

No pardons would be available to high Confederate officials and persons owning property valued in excess of $20,000.

A state needed to abolish slavery before being readmitted.

c)  Abraham Lincoln and Andrew Johnson's Reconstruction plans were similar in that they both had similar requirements for former Confederate states to be reunited into the Union. This required ten percent of voters to take a loyalty oath and for the states to ratify the 13th Amendment.

<u><em>Freedmen's Bureau</em></u>

a)  On March 3, 1865, Congress passed “An Act to establish a Bureau for the Relief of Freedmen and Refugees” to provide food, shelter, clothing, medical services, and land to displaced Southerners, including newly freed African Americans.

b)  The Freedmen's Bureau provided food, housing, and medical aid, established schools, and offered legal assistance. It also attempted to settle former slaves on land confiscated or abandoned during the war.

<u><em>Sharecropping</em></u>

a) Much of the Southern United States was destroyed during the Civil war. Farms and plantations were burned down and their crops destroyed. The rebuilding of the South after the Civil War is called the Reconstruction. The Reconstruction lasted from 1865 to 1877.

b)  By the early 1870s, the system known as sharecropping had come to dominate agriculture across the cotton-planting South. Under this system, black families would rent small plots of land, or shares, to work themselves; in return, they would give a portion of their crop to the landowner at the end of the year.

c)  The absence of cash or an independent credit system led to the creation of sharecropping. High-interest rates, unpredictable harvests, and unscrupulous landlords and merchants often kept tenant farm families severely indebted, requiring the debt to be carried over until the next year or the next.

<u><em>Jim Crow Era</em></u>

a)  Poll taxes, literacy tests, fraud, and intimidation all turned African Americans away from the polls.

b)  Fifteenth Amendment, amendment (1870) to the Constitution of the United States that guaranteed that the right to vote could not be denied based on “race, color, or previous condition of servitude.” The amendment complemented and followed in the wake of the passage of the Thirteenth and Fourteenth amendments, which ...

c)  The Voting Rights Act of 1965 was passed in response to Jim Crow laws and other restrictions of minorities' voting rights at the time, primarily in the Deep South. The Act has undergone several changes and additions since its passage. In 2013, the U.S. Supreme Court found a key provision of the Act unconstitutional.

harina [27]

British boycotted American goods

Explanation:

Colonial forces would have had an advantage on?
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

In the Revolutionary War, the colonial forces had multiple advantages. For one, they were fighting on their home turf, so they were more familiar with their surroundings. Also, they cared more about what they were fighting for - to the British, this was a dumb war they were being forced to fight so close to the 7 Year's War and they didn't really care about keeping some irrelevant colony. The colonial forces used guerrilla warfare to fight the British as well, which disrupted their traditional military style.

What 3rd party formed during the late 1800’s?
sladkih [1.3K]

Third parties have had a major influence on U.S. policy and political debate despite their minor presence in Congress — currently only one U.S. senator and one member of the House of Representatives is an independent.

In the late 1800s and early 1900s, the Socialists popularized the women’s suffrage movement. They advocated for child labor laws in 1904 and, along with the Populist Party, introduced the notion of a 40-hour work week, which led to the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938.
