Which statements describe the Jim Crow laws of the post-Civil War period?

History
1 answer:
Luden [163]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Except for the second statement, all others are correct descriptions of the Jim Crow laws.

Explanation:

Jim Crow laws started after the Reconstruction period (1863-1877) and served to keep now former slaves, the African-Americans, from having equal rights as the white people had.

Based on the truthless argument of "separate but equal" these laws created spaces that black people did not have access to, leaving the best positions in many places for the whites. The separation was the way white supremacists chose back then to enforce their violence upon black people.

The "equal" in the aforementioned phrase was empty as violence against African-Americans was explicit; lynchings of black men, for example, were common. Black American citizens didn't have their civil rights respected, not in practice (the right to vote was constantly disrespected) nor in theory (Jim Crow laws violated many civil rights)

Which is an example of the federal government’s implied powers?
Soloha48 [4]

In the USA, each branch of government has powers that have been defined as theirs by the Constitution. However, there is a notion of other powers that are not explicitly mentioned in it. In the case of Congress, such implied powers are deemed to be “necessary and proper”, that is to say, that it is understood that although they are not granted explicitly by the Constitution, they are logically and reasonably required to exercise those powers which are explicitly granted by the Constitution. Since the powers of coining money, acquiring territory and declaring war are explicitly granted by the Constitution to the federal government, the correct answer for this question would be building highway systems, which is an implied power (that also happens to be a concurrent power (a power that is exercised both by the federal and the state governments).
