1. A student is researching both Lincoln's and Johnson's plans for reconstruction using a search engine. Which website should she visit to find information?

A. Congress leads the way
B. Rise of redeemer governments in the 1870s
C. Political reforms in the south, 1865-1766
D. Winning the war at palmito ranch
My answer is C.

The second question has two answers.
2. Which of the following were effects of congressional reconstruction in Texas but not of presidential reconstruction?
A. Passage of black codes
B. Emergence of racial violence
C. Election of African American office holders
D. Ratifiction of the fourteenth amendment
My answers are B, and C.

For the first question, if a student is researching both Lincoln's and Johnson's plans for reconstruction, they should visit option A. "Congress leads the way" website. This suggests that the website provides information specifically about the role Congress played in the reconstruction plans.

For the second question, to determine which effects were specific to congressional reconstruction in Texas but not presidential reconstruction, let's analyze each option:

A. Passage of black codes: Black codes were laws enacted in both presidential and congressional reconstruction periods to restrict the rights and freedoms of African Americans. Therefore, this effect was not specific to congressional reconstruction in Texas.

B. Emergence of racial violence: Racial violence did occur during both presidential and congressional reconstruction, but if it specifically mentions it in relation to congressional reconstruction in Texas, then this effect would be unique to that period.

C. Election of African American office holders: This effect would be unique to congressional reconstruction, as one of the main goals was to secure political rights and representation for African Americans.

D. Ratification of the Fourteenth Amendment: The Fourteenth Amendment was ratified during the congressional reconstruction period and aimed to grant equal protection under the law to all citizens, including African Americans. So, this effect applies to congressional reconstruction but does not differentiate it from presidential reconstruction.

Based on the analysis, the correct answers for the second question would be B (Emergence of racial violence) and C (Election of African American office holders).
