They were freed from slavery once the 13th amendment was passed, but the racism they faced from others, as well as the government, was still staggering. They were not even close to being equals to whites despite the 13th, 14th, and 15th amendment. ]]> 2019-11-06 00:53:50 UTC https://padlet.com/leeam2/cofiroowecoc/wish/407208766 zahoward https://padlet.com/leeam2/cofiroowecoc/wish/407212153 The progress for African Americans was still slow after the civil war because equal opportunities was still being stripped away from the majority of African Americans.

The rights of the African Americans were not simply handed to them after being freed, but were rather heavily restricted and had to be fought for. They were not initially given the same rights as White Americans. ]]> 2019-11-06 18:59:45 UTC https://padlet.com/leeam2/cofiroowecoc/wish/407670642 ajzhang21 https://padlet.com/leeam2/cofiroowecoc/wish/407672945 After the civil war, progress was slow for African Americans because the people still tried to keep former systems in place. However, it was harder to justify and keep the aforementioned systems. Moreover, progress was probably slow for Americans in general because former systems were still enforced.

For example, African Americans were restricted from renting/keeping homes or conduct meetings in certain regions of Louisiana. In Mississippi, however, African Americans were allowed to intermarry and sue.

Even though most slaves were free by then, they had strict rules, boundaries on what the black Americans could do. In Document A it shares "No person of color, whether free or slave, shall be allowed to preach to, exhort, or join in any religious exercise..." showing that they put guidelines, strict rules on what these newly free citizens could do. It also shares, "Any Negro found drunk, within the said parish shall pay a fine of five dollars," showing the difference between the black and white citizens of America and how they were treated. ]]> 2019-11-06 20:38:10 UTC https://padlet.com/leeam2/cofiroowecoc/wish/407741364 https://padlet.com/leeam2/cofiroowecoc/wish/407741379 African Americans were no longer considered slaves, but they still had very little rights. Section 4 of the the Louisiana black codes said that a white person had to be responsible for the conduct of each African American, and they still had to be in their regular service. Section 6 said that they could not partake in any religious activities, one of the few things that America was founded on.]]> 2019-11-06 20:38:12 UTC https://padlet.com/leeam2/cofiroowecoc/wish/407741379 https://padlet.com/leeam2/cofiroowecoc/wish/407741829 After the war, even though slavery was outlawed, there was no freedom for African Americans and it was just as though nothing changed. Obviously there was not open brutality through slavery, but the attitude toward A.A remain the same and their rights never changes. For example, Negroes could not sell merchandise or have public meetings of any kind, which are rights that white people are given. Their rights greatly limited what they could accomplish. ]]> 2019-11-06 20:38:59 UTC https://padlet.com/leeam2/cofiroowecoc/wish/407741829 https://padlet.com/leeam2/cofiroowecoc/wish/407741834 After the civil war progress was very slow for Americans because slaves were free but African Americans were still treated poorly.

In section 3 of Georgia Slave Codes, African Americans were not allowed to participate in white religions.]]> 2019-11-06 20:39:00 UTC https://padlet.com/leeam2/cofiroowecoc/wish/407741834 https://padlet.com/leeam2/cofiroowecoc/wish/407741972 Progress after the Civil War was slow because as amendments were added in order to further the rights of African Americans, ways were found to continue discrimination and unfair treatment outside of slavery. 
- Blacks had to be in service to whites
- Blacks were not allowed to read or write]]> 2019-11-06 20:39:15 UTC https://padlet.com/leeam2/cofiroowecoc/wish/407741972 https://padlet.com/leeam2/cofiroowecoc/wish/407742009 Progress for Americans after the Civil War was slow. American's were still hung up on the idea of using African American's as workers with bad working condition and agreements. In the South Carolina Black Codes, XLVI, it says, All lost time, not caused by the act of the master, and all losses occasioned by neglect of his duties hereinbefore prescribed, may be deducted from the wages of the servant and food, nursing and other necessaries for the servant. ]]> 2019-11-06 20:39:18 UTC https://padlet.com/leeam2/cofiroowecoc/wish/407742009 kgking https://padlet.com/leeam2/cofiroowecoc/wish/407742074 Progress for Americans was slow because although slavery was abolished, the black codes did not protect the rights of African Americans. The Black Codes stated:
- No African American can learn how to read nor write.
- No African American may practice any religion
These examples are few that refuse the rights that built America which includes equal opportunity as well as freedom of speech, religion, etc. ]]> 2019-11-06 20:39:25 UTC https://padlet.com/leeam2/cofiroowecoc/wish/407742074 rkkaralis https://padlet.com/leeam2/cofiroowecoc/wish/407742232 Progress for Americans after the civil war was very slow. Even though slavery was ended the African Americans didn't have their freedom. The black codes casted yet another shadow over the lives of African Americans. For African Americans who were taught or know how to " read or write either written or printed characters.....shall be punished by fine and whipping, or fine or whipping, at the discretion of the court" (Georgia). The white citizens are making it impossible for an African American to live a free and equal life in America. The African Americans "shall not be permitted to rent or keep a house within said parish"(Louisiana). If they can't rent a house, read, write, or get punished for the things that the people of porcelain color can get away with then how can they live a happy life? ]]> 2019-11-06 20:39:43 UTC https://padlet.com/leeam2/cofiroowecoc/wish/407742232 aavina9_4 https://padlet.com/leeam2/cofiroowecoc/wish/407742508 American progress after the Civil War was slow because although many amendments were created to make people more equal, other laws were imposed that limited the effectiveness of the amendments. This is evident when most states say that African Americans cannot not do religious practices. Another example is that African Americans cannot meet together in the black codes of Louisiana. ]]> 2019-11-06 20:40:09 UTC https://padlet.com/leeam2/cofiroowecoc/wish/407742508 https://padlet.com/leeam2/cofiroowecoc/wish/407742515 Even when slavery was abolished after the civil war, the black codes that were made, pretty much denied African Americans of their rights.
