The Thirteenth Amendment officially outlawed and made slavery illegal in the United States. Slavery was a huge part of the civil war as the Southern states wanted to keep slavery, because they made most of their money from tobacco and cotton and needed free labor to keep their farms going. The Northern states abolished slavery, these people were called Abolitionists, who were disgusted by slavery and wanted to end it. When the Constitution ratified this amendment it officially stopped slavery throughout the United States.

DONT ANSWER IF YOU DONT KNOW
RSB [31]

Answer:

he actions of the colonist in response to the Townshend Act convinced the British that they needed troops in Boston to help maintain order. Lord Hillsborough, Secretary of State for the Colonies, dispatched two regiments-(4,000 troops), to restore order in Boston. The daily contact between British soldiers and colonists served to worsen relations.

The decision by the British to dispatch troops to Boston was one of their worst decisions, in an entire series of bad moves, that helped make the eventual independence of America inevitable. The British government reacted to the Americans, and specifically to the Massachusetts opposition to the Townshend act by dispatching troops to Boston. This might have been the correct policy if the opposition was just made up of a few firebrands. The British, however, misread the opposition, which was wide spread.

The announcement that British troops were arriving created immediate resentment among the colonists. The idea that British troops were coming, not to defend the colonists in times of war, but the pacify them, seemed inconceivable to many. In addition, the idea that troops of the standing army, many of whom did not have a reputation for high moral standards, would be living in their city on a daily basis filled many Bostonians with dread.

Did the United States live up to the ideals of justice and democracy during WWII ? Explain why.
Alex73 [517]

Answer:

No they did not

Explanation:

Democracy is when the whole country, peacefully, comes to agreements about issues through elected officals. During the civil war, the states were split up fighting against each other over the issue of slavery. This does not at all represent democracy. Slaves were still being kept during the time of WWII which is a huge injustice and inequality.
