Question

Northerners protested that the Black Codes of South Carolina and other Southern states attempted to

Answer 1

Yes, I agree.

Explanation:

After the Civil War, the Civil War Amendments were created. These are the 13th, 14th, and 15th Amendments. The 13th Amendment abolished slavery in the United States, except when it is a form of punishment. The 14th Amendment made it so anybody who was born in the United States were now citizens. Lastly, the 15th Amendment made it so black men could now vote.

Although these Amendments were created and passed, the South still did not agree with the freedom of black people. The South enacted Black Codes, which were designed to limit the new freedoms of black Americans. These Black Codes prohibited black Americans from doing a lot of things, like getting certain jobs, marrying certain people, or purchasing land.

Northerners protested that the Black Codes of South Carolina and other Southern states attempted to restore slavery, which I agree with. It is obvious that the South despised the fact that black people were now obtaining freedom and would do anything in their power to stop it. Even though they were free people, white Southerners still wanted to be able to regulate everything in their lives and essentially treat them like slaves still.
