So what was the overall impact of these amendments?

If you have a device on you, get it out. If not, get out paper. Pull up Socrative. You can do this by:

Write a tweet about which amendment was most important and why. Can be handwritten or Edmodo post. Post your handwritten tweets to the wall before you leave.

YOUR PARENTS CREATE A NEW RULE THAT YOU DO NOT LIKE. YOU WANT TO RESIST IT WITHOUT GETTING YOURSELF INTO TROUBLE. TALK TO SOMEONE SITTING NEXT TO YOU ABOUT WAYS YOU COULD RESIST THIS RULE OR GET IT CHANGED.

AGENDA RULE RESISTANCE SOUTHERN RESISTANCE TO RECONSTRUCTION AMENDMENTS JIM CROW LAWS THE SUPREME COURT RULES IN… TURN IN HOMEWORK BEFORE YOU LEAVE GREEN SHEET: WHAT DO YOU DO WITH IT?

MANY SOUTHERNERS RESISTED REFORMS GIVING AFRICAN AMERICANS MORE RIGHTS THE OFTEN TARGETED VOTING RIGHTS WHY?

EXAMPLES OF POLICIES LIMITING VOTING RIGHTS: GRANDFATHER CLAUSE: rule saying you could vote only if your grandfather could vote Why would this be a problem?

EXAMPLES OF POLICIES LIMITING VOTING RIGHTS: POLL TAX: payment to the government that had to be made before an individual could vote Why would this be an issue for African Americans?

EXAMPLES OF POLICIES LIMITING VOTING RIGHTS: LITERACY TESTS: rules that stated that voters needed to prove they were able to read and write before they voted Southerners argued that voting required intelligent decisions, so you needed to be educated to vote Tests were only given to African Americans Why do you think they did not give these tests to everyone?

OTHER LIMITATIONS ON AFRICAN AMERICANS SEGREGATION: separating people based on race Providing different facilities for different racial groups

JIM CROW LAWS Laws that segregated Americans These policies existed across the country, not just in the south
