The sunlight that day had been harsh, and that did nothing to aid the old man in his attempt to read the blinding white paper. Swifts gusts of wind did not help the…

The South was a very strong force during the growth of the new world. They were a huge contributor to the success that the United States of America is today. With the growth of agriculture and cash crop during the 1800’s, the South was the backbone to the North. Although the South had several reasons for seceding and fighting the civil war, slavery was the most important. The election of 1860 was a huge turning point of the secession of the South. “Lincoln received not a single electoral vote…

In the 1860s, the north and the south fought against each other over the long-standing controversy over slavery.

Former slaves faced obstacles for equal rights like voting and segregation for nearly a century. Although the 14th and 15th amendments helped blacks with equal rights there was no one to…
