The document that institutionalizes American ideas is "the Declaration of Independence".
<u>Explanation:</u>
The Declaration of Independence (DoI) and the Constitution are documentation that provide the idealistic pillars for the United States' democratically elected government.The independence or DoI, provides a framework for the principles of popular sovereignty, the notion that government is needed to serve the public who elect a leader to convey their desire.Whereas the Constitution of U.S illustrates its government program's blueprint, which seeks to equalize freedom of the individual with law and order.
The 1871 Enforcement Acts consisted of several important Civil Rights Acts passed by Congress during the Reconstruction Era. The purpose of the Enforcement Acts was to implement and extend the fundamental guarantees of the Constitution to all citizens and protect African Americans from violence perpetrated by the Ku Klux Klan (KKK). The Enforcement Acts are therefore also referred to as the 1871 Civil Rights Act or the Ku Klux Klan Act.
