It also brought more unity into the African American community, making them more of a force than ever before. ]]> 2023-05-25 12:44:35 UTC https://padlet.com/ferrarac2/5e6t15ktbb9rckk6/wish/2604814075 ferrarac2 https://padlet.com/ferrarac2/5e6t15ktbb9rckk6/wish/2604815309 The 14th Amendment granted citizenship to all persons "born or naturalized in the United States." This includes formerly enslaved people and their families. This amendment gave all citizens equal protection under the law. This amendment led to Brown vs. Board of Education, Civil Rights Act of 1964, Voting Rights Act of 1965, and the removal of Poll Taxes & Literacy Tests. ]]> 2023-05-25 12:45:42 UTC https://padlet.com/ferrarac2/5e6t15ktbb9rckk6/wish/2604815309 ferrarac2 https://padlet.com/ferrarac2/5e6t15ktbb9rckk6/wish/2604817153 Poll Taxes and Literacy Tests were both used to deny suffrage to African Americans. These were used to keep descendants of slaves out of voting in elections. The taxes were too high for the poor and the literacy tests used tricky language to make uneducated African Americans slip up and prove to be "uneducated". These directly took away from the 15th amendment which was supposed to grant the right to all United States citizens regardless of color or race the right to vote, even if they were the descendant of a slave. ]]> 2023-05-25 12:47:15 UTC https://padlet.com/ferrarac2/5e6t15ktbb9rckk6/wish/2604817153 ferrarac2 https://padlet.com/ferrarac2/5e6t15ktbb9rckk6/wish/2604818001 The 13th Amendment abolished slavery in the United States of America. Ratifying an amendment was the only official way to end slavery. It also outlawed the practice of involuntary servitude and peonage. ]]> 2023-05-25 12:48:01 UTC https://padlet.com/ferrarac2/5e6t15ktbb9rckk6/wish/2604818001 ferrarac2 https://padlet.com/ferrarac2/5e6t15ktbb9rckk6/wish/2604818663 The 15th Amendment granted all United States citizens the right to vote, regardless of color or race, even if they were a slave in the past. The federal government was unable to deny any United States citizen the right to vote. ]]> 2023-05-25 12:48:40 UTC https://padlet.com/ferrarac2/5e6t15ktbb9rckk6/wish/2604818663 ferrarac2 https://padlet.com/ferrarac2/5e6t15ktbb9rckk6/wish/2604819596 Truman's Executive Order abolished discrimination in the United States military. The full integration of the American military would never have been possible without the patriotism and freedom of African Americans. Eventually led to the end of segregation in all public services. This would stop future Tuskegee Airmen, a segregated group of African American air-force pilots who were better than the whites, but still talked down to because of their race. ]]> 2023-05-25 12:49:30 UTC https://padlet.com/ferrarac2/5e6t15ktbb9rckk6/wish/2604819596 ferrarac2 https://padlet.com/ferrarac2/5e6t15ktbb9rckk6/wish/2604834018 2023-05-25 13:01:49 UTC https://padlet.com/ferrarac2/5e6t15ktbb9rckk6/wish/2604834018 ferrarac2 https://padlet.com/ferrarac2/5e6t15ktbb9rckk6/wish/2604841742 Malcolm X was assassinated by three white supremacists at an Organization of Afro-American Unity rally in New York City. This is integral to Civil Rights because Malcolm X testified for black power, black self-defense, encouraging racial pride, and black economic autonomy. ]]> 2023-05-25 13:08:22 UTC https://padlet.com/ferrarac2/5e6t15ktbb9rckk6/wish/2604841742 ferrarac2 https://padlet.com/ferrarac2/5e6t15ktbb9rckk6/wish/2604845460 It was signed by President Lyndon Johnson. It outlawed the practice of Poll Taxes and Literacy Tests which were mostly adopted by Southern States. These needed to be outlawed because they discriminated on race and membership in one of the language minority groups. ]]> 2023-05-25 13:11:31 UTC https://padlet.com/ferrarac2/5e6t15ktbb9rckk6/wish/2604845460 ferrarac2 https://padlet.com/ferrarac2/5e6t15ktbb9rckk6/wish/2604846422 2023-05-25 13:12:11 UTC https://padlet.com/ferrarac2/5e6t15ktbb9rckk6/wish/2604846422 ferrarac2 https://padlet.com/ferrarac2/5e6t15ktbb9rckk6/wish/2604851634 The Montgomery Bus Boycott started to protest the segregated seating on buses in Montgomery, Alabama. It is regarded as one of the first large-scale African American demonstrations against segregation and for civil rights. The Montgomery Bus Boycott ended because the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that bus segregation violated the 14th Amendment because it made races not equal. ]]> 2023-05-25 13:16:15 UTC https://padlet.com/ferrarac2/5e6t15ktbb9rckk6/wish/2604851634 ferrarac2 https://padlet.com/ferrarac2/5e6t15ktbb9rckk6/wish/2604856391 Prohibits discrimination on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, and national origin. In a country where all citizens are supposed to be equal, this act puts it one step closer. This act prohibited discrimination in public places, schools, and employment. Workers could not be hired because of their race nor fired for the same reason. ]]> 2023-05-25 13:19:30 UTC https://padlet.com/ferrarac2/5e6t15ktbb9rckk6/wish/2604856391 ferrarac2 https://padlet.com/ferrarac2/5e6t15ktbb9rckk6/wish/2604860377 The U.S. Supreme court outlawed state-sanctioned segregation of public schools. This act was ratified because school segregation was a direct violation of the 14th amendment. Cracking down on school segregation was a major catalyst for the civil rights movement, it came to effect desegregating housing, public accommodations, and institutions of higher education. ]]> 2023-05-25 13:22:51 UTC https://padlet.com/ferrarac2/5e6t15ktbb9rckk6/wish/2604860377 ferrarac2 https://padlet.com/ferrarac2/5e6t15ktbb9rckk6/wish/2604861064 2023-05-25 13:23:22 UTC https://padlet.com/ferrarac2/5e6t15ktbb9rckk6/wish/2604861064 ferrarac2 https://padlet.com/ferrarac2/5e6t15ktbb9rckk6/wish/2604867386 Civil rights activist Martin Luther King Jr. was assassinated in the Lorraine Motel on April 4, 1968. His assassination was impactful to the time because he was the leader of the Civil Rights movement, it also showed the world how much power white supremacists had. With Malcolm X and him both being assassinated, a new leader had to rise. In his life, MLK organized the march on Washington for jobs and freedom, brought together African Americans in civil right fights, helped fight for the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Voting Rights Act of 1965.
