Students looked at how things changed little despite the fact the 13-15th amendments were passed. The Reconstruction included the beginning of sharecropping and black codes which kept the cycle of a slavery like appearance in the South. Handouts will be posted tomorrow. As well as quickwrite on voter intimidation.
Quickwrite Question: Using the Picture with the gun to the head, how did
whites(typically the KKK) in the South impact voting of blacks? Why do you
think they even let this guy vote? What has the 15th amendment turned into?
