Which was the biggest flaw to the articles of Confederation
Alik [6]
One of the major flaws of the Articles of Confederation was that it didn't establish any mechanism of governance to deal with interstate disputes or anyway to enforce laws or agreements across the colonies. Because the Articles of Confederation established such a weak central authority the Constitution was explicitly written to correct this problem, and establish a government that could govern the states in an effective way so that they could function as a nation.

Which of these resulted from the Union victory in the Civil War? (3 points) Select one:
LenKa [72]
  • The answer is:

B. African American men were granted the right to vote.

  • Only days after the end of the American Civil War, in 1865, Frederick Douglass, elected president of the <u>Convention of Black Americans</u>, spoke during a meeting of the African Slavery Society, explaining why the black men required the right to vote and the need to make justice for them. Here is an excerpt of what his speech:

<em>“…If the Negro knows enough to pay taxes to support government, he knows enough to vote; taxation and representation should go together. If he knows enough to shoulder a musket and fight for the flag for the government, he knows enough to vote…What I ask for the Negro is not benevolence, not pity, not sympathy, but simply justice.” </em>

  • Thus, in 1869, while this issue was being discussed in the Congress, 150 black men from several states gathered for the <u>Convention of Black Americans</u>, which took place in Washington, D.C. and was the first one in the U.S. history.
  • After debating in the Congress, the 15th Amendment, which granted male African American the right to vote, was finally adopted in 1870. Moreover, the Article 1 of such Amendment states that <em>"The right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of race, color, or previous condition of servitude.” </em>
