Answer:

C but read below.

Explanation:

B is never going to be correct. Slavery was never condoned by the constitution. The problem was that it was never prohibited either.

In its original form, D is true. The Emancipation Proclamation did apply only to the southern states. Later on in Dec. 1865, the 13 Amendment was passed and it made servitude of any kind prohibited -- at least that was the intention. D is incorrect.

E: As far as I know, reparations was never offered to former slaves.

It seems to me that A and C are saying the same thing. The Supreme Court was needed to make C true, but it was a matter of interpretation. The people writing the 13th intended any kind of slavery (involuntary servitude in any form is the wording of the 13.)

I think I would pick C but don't be surprised if A turns out to be the right answer. I don't think the constitution helps with the question of racial equality, but the person making the question may think it does.

Edit

The 13th did not stop the practice of segregation. That battle was hard fought in the 1960s. I don't think African Americans thought of themselves as equals -- otherwise the civil Rights movement was fought for a cause beyond my understanding.

List two pros and cons of the US going to war with Mexico.

pychu [463]

Answer:

The act of the U.S.A in going to war with Mexico proved advantageous in terms of allowing the nation to continue its territorial expansion as it was envisioned by President Polk. It also proved the strength of the U.S. in terms of "patriotism."

On the contrary, the act of the U.S.A. in going to war with Mexico cost the country a lot of money and loss of many lives. It also worsened the issue about "slavery."

Explanation:

The "Mexican-American War" occurred from 1846 to 1848. The war started because of the annexation of Texas.

The U.S. believed that annexing Texas would allow them to expand their territories, however, the Mexican government did not recognize such event. They even prevented diplomatic relationship with the Americans when the Americans attempted to settle the issue with them.
