Explanation:
The Sixteenth Amendment to the Constitution of the United States (Amendment XVI) allows the United States Congress to tax an income tax without apportioning it among the states according to their population or based on the results of a census. This amendment excluded Income Tax from the constitutional requirements of direct taxes, after taxes on income, dividends and interest were qualified as direct taxes by the Supreme Court ruling in the Pollock case against Farmers' Loan & Trust Co. (1895). It was ratified in February 1913.

Thats some we call an 18th century thinker who believed in wisdom.
1) The cotton gin was a machine that easily removed the seeds from cotton. This labor intensive job was now made much easier, allowing for cotton to become a much more profitable crop. This results in a huge increase in the number of slaves desired by southerners. The more slaves they would have to use the cotton gin, the more money they could make.
2) The Underground Railroad was a series of safe houses that would help slaves escape from the institution of slavery. Conductors were individuals who helped these slaves escape. One of the most famous ones was Harriet Tubman, who helped thousands of slaves escape from the South.
3) Garrison, Lovejoy, and Douglass participated heavily in the abolitionist movement. These three men took multiple different actions to try to end slavery including: giving speeches about the evils of this institution and creating writings/books discussing why this institution needs to be outlawed.
