Americans responded to the Second Great Awakening by-
il63 [147K]

Answer:

The Second Great Awakening was a Protestant religious revival during the early 19th century in the United States. The Second Great Awakening, which spread religion through revivals and emotional preaching, sparked a number of reform movements. Revivals were a key part of the movement and attracted hundreds of converts to new Protestant denominations. The Methodist Church used circuit riders to reach people in frontier locations. The Second Great Awakening led to a period of antebellum social reform and an emphasis on salvation by institutions. The outpouring of religious fervor and revival began in Kentucky and Tennessee in the 1790s and early 1800s among the Presbyterians, Methodists and Baptists. The awakening brought comfort in the face of uncertainty as a result of the socio-political changes in America.

It led to the founding of several well known colleges, seminaries, and mission societies. The Great Awakening notably altered the religious climate in the American colonies. Ordinary people were encouraged to make a personal connection with God, instead of relying on a minister. Newer denominations, such as Methodists and Baptists, grew quickly. While the movement unified the colonies and boosted church growth, experts say[which?] it also caused division.

Historians named the Second Great Awakening in the context of the First Great Awakening of the 1730s and 1750s and of the Third Great Awakening of the late 1850s to early 1900s. The Second and Third Awakenings were part of a much larger Romantic religious movement that was sweeping across England, Scotland, and Germany

What was the impact of the 13th, 14th, 15th, 19th, 24th, and 26th Amendments to the United States Constitution?
kolezko [41]

The 13th admendent took away slavery in 1865. But in order to protect the former slaves' rights they had to create to more admendments which is where the 14th admendment comes in.

for the 14th admendments, the imapct for that one was that the U.S. Constitution now protected all U.S. citizens (including former slaves) from state-level policies that discriminated against them because of their race.

for the 15th admendment, this one granted african americans the right to vote by stating this "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."

for the 19th admendment gave women the right to vote so this one mostly impacted on women, changing a lot of things since only men were allowed to do so.

for the 24th admendment,  it prohibited any poll tax in elections for federal officials.

for the last one, the 26th admndment. This is where the phrase "old enough to fight, old enough to vote" comes in. during World War II, President Franklin D. Roosevelt lowered the age for the military draft to 18, at a time when the minimum voting age was 21.

Hope this helped!!!!
