Answer:
African Americans
Explanation:
<em>The 15th Amendment, adopted in 1870, guaranteed that citizen's right to vote would not be denied "on account of race, color, or previous conditions with servitude". During this period of Radical Reconstruction (1867-77), blacks won election to southern state governments and even to the U.S. congress.</em>
Answer: Segregation violated the <u>equal protection clause</u> of the 14th Amendment, which holds that no state can “deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.”
Details/explanation:
<em>Brown v. Board of Education of Topeka</em>, decided by the US Supreme Court in 1954, ruled that all Americans are entitled to the same civil liberties and protections in regard to access to education. Until that decision, it was legal to segregate schools according to race, so that black students could not attend the same schools as white students. An older Supreme Court decision,<em> Plessy v. Ferguson</em> (1896), had said that separate, segregated public facilities were acceptable as long as the facilities offered were equal in quality. In the case of Brown v. Board of Education, that standard was challenged and defeated. Segregation was shown to create inequality, and the Supreme Court unanimously ruled segregation to be unconstitutional.
The ruling was important in advancing civil rights because it affirmed that the 14th Amendment applies to all rights and privileges of citizens, including access to education. This was being violated by states whose laws supported the segregation of schools. Section 1 of the 14th Amendment reads as follows:
- <em>All persons born or naturalized in the United States and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.</em>
Answer:
Indeed, for historical reasons African Americans have a different public and political opinion than whites. People of African descent have historically suffered economic, social, cultural and political discrimination and relegation since the abolition of slavery after the Civil War, generally obtaining less recognition and benefits from the government than the white majority in the country. For this reason, African Americans have evolved in their thinking towards positions of progressive tint, supporting mostly the Democratic Party and the liberal, inclusive and less conservative ideologies.
It allowed the Federal government to limit free speech during times of war. An example is if the United States was currently in war and you outwardly said in public ”the war is meaningless, our government is not supporting freedom, the military is making our soldiers fight for oil companies don't join!”. The government may arrest you because you outwardly spoke out against it in times of war.
