Question

Help :(
What was the main rationale for the Black Codes passed in the South after the Civil War?

Answer 1

African Americans needed a quota of jobs and political offices in order to compete against whites.
African Americans were capable of exercising political power if they were not blocked by white racists.
African Americans were an inferior race that did not deserve the same rights and privileges as whites.
African Americans would migrate out of the South in large numbers unless they were given economic opportunities.

Answer 2

The quote below was made in an 1867 address to Congress by Thaddeus Stevens, a Republican leader and member of the U.S. House of Representatives:

Have not loyal blacks quite as good a right to choose rulers and make laws as rebel whites? . . . every man, no matter what his race or color . . . has an equal right to justice, honesty, and fair play with every other man; and the law should secure him those rights.

Based on Stevens' perspective in the quote, with which of the following statements would he be likely to agree?
The Reconstruction Amendments are unconstitutional and should be abolished.
The Fifteenth Amendment should be extended to guarantee voting rights for women.
The clause in the Fourteenth Amendment that guarantees citizens equal protection should be revised.
The Reconstruction Amendments are essential to reuniting the country and rebuilding the South.
