In 1968, Congress passed the 14th amendment to protect the rights of newly freed slaves. What was the content of this amendment? Was it effective in its intent? Did this carry over to other ethnic groups in America? Give examples and how it was or
was not effective for both freed slaves and other ethnic groups.
What will be an ideal response?
It is good for students to write out the basic content of this amendment and what it meant. It is important to discuss ways this amendment did not stop discriminatory practice and limitation to act as citizens for freed slaves, particularly in the South. The Chinese and other Asians are a good example of a discriminated group who did not get rights as citizens and later had this made official in the Naturalization Act of 1870 .
