Question

Aner the passage of the Thirteenth, Fourteenth, and Fileenth Amendments, why did Affican Americans continue to experience political oppression?

O The amendments were not intended to exclusively solve African American problems.
O Southern legislatures enacted Jim Crow laws.
O Many Affican Americans did not trust that the amendments would be upheld.
O Poor communication kept African Americans from learning about their rights.

Answer 1

All of the above reasons contributed to the continued political oppression of African Americans after the passage of the Thirteenth, Fourteenth, and Fifteenth Amendments. These amendments were important steps towards ensuring equal rights for African Americans, but they were not sufficient to solve all the problems facing the community. Southern legislatures enacted Jim Crow laws that enforced segregation and denied African Americans their full rights, and many African Americans did not trust that the amendments would be upheld given the systemic racism and discrimination they faced. Poor communication and limited access to education and information also made it difficult for African Americans to fully understand and exercise their rights.
