After the American Civil war (1861 -1865) and the victory of the Union, a process of Reconstruction (1865-1877) took place. This process aimed to transform the 11 ex-confederated states in a "republican form of government" via laws and constitutional amendments.
The Southerners felt Northerners were getting rich at their expense because since the end of the war many moved to the south as social reformers. Several of them were businessmen who acquired or rented plantations and became wealthy landowners, choosing freedmen to do the labor. Following the Civil War, Northerners often obtained plantations at fire-sale rates. Because of this, they were commonly considered to be taking advantage of those living in the South.
Answer:
D. town meetings
Explanation:
The Puritans loved their town meetings, many towns held on town meeting every monday at 8 a.m.
Puritans wanted as many people as possible to participate in the civic process to encourage stability and respect for the law. The democratic town meeting also provided legitimacy to rules that some might otherwise have found unjust. Attendance was mandatory and fines imposed on those who were absent.
This is true.
For example, this is the case with hate speech laws. Since it is not precisely defined or understood what hate speech actually constitutes, many and no things at the same time can be considered to be hate speech, so it can be used politically to reduce the freedom of expression and the rights given to people by the first amendment.
