Answer:

There is too many of these so here it comes.

Jim Crow Laws: Segregated African Americans, blacks and whites could not marry each other, there's a whole lot more of where this came from but I think I got the idea out.

Women: Women couldn't vote

Japanese-American internment during WW2.

Slavery (I don't think this one needs an explanation.)

When it comes to laws that restricted the civil rights of African Americans, Jim crow laws are at the top

Jim Crow laws were a collection of state and local statutes that legalized racial segregation. Named after a Black minstrel show character, the laws—which existed for about 100 years, from the post-Civil War era until 1968—were meant to marginalize African Americans by denying them the right to vote, hold jobs, get an education or other opportunities. Those who attempted to defy Jim Crow laws often faced arrest, fines, jail sentences, violence and death.

Explain why chose to be a federalist or Anti-federalist and why you disagree with the opposing position

tresset_1 [31]

I agree with the federalists because they want a stronger government. They wanted to bring all the states together to create a nation before they were all separate and doing their own thing, but now the Constitution brought them all together under one national government. They also believed that it was necessary that a strong federal government was formed to establish organization of the entire country. So they also wanted to make sure that any branch wouldn’t have too much power then the others so they had to create a Checks & Balances to help enforce that. One thing I didn’t really like was how they at first didn’t want to have the Bill of Rights in the Constitution because they wanted to limit the rights of the people, rather than protect them. I’m glad they added the Bill of Rights at the end because it would be wrong for them to limit our rights and not protect us.

I found this from school about 1-2 years ago. It doesn’t have everything, but I’m sure you can use some of what I have and add on.
