Answer 19

Before the Constitution, black people were treated poorly. As we know, they were slaves. They had been traded, forced to work, beaten, in some instances barely fed. In some cases, they were not treated as people (as we can see from the 3/5 Compromise). They were seen as an inferior and their purpose was to work for the wealthy (at this time the white men, i'd say typically the more wealthy farm owners.) We could also look at the segregation issue. They were, again, seen as inferior and were not permitted to be in the same spaces as white people. They were judged, and mistreated all due to the color of their skin.
hope this helped some : )
