[edit]

I added an entirely new article on 19th century election campaigns, a topic not elsewhere covered but which has a very large literature. Richard Jensen 67.176.74.236 06:01, 11 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I don't understand what this means:

"(Slaves became free in 1863-65 and could vote between about 1870 and 1900.)"

I'm just a passerby doing a little research for history and I noticed this. Was there some reason that kept african americans from voting all of a sudden in 1900? Of course I understand there were things like threats of violence but was their constitutional right to vote taken away or something? The way it's worded is a little unclear to me, but I left it as is so that you experienced wikipedia editors can fix it if it needs to be. Just putting in my two cents (sorry if I just overlooked something and pointing this out was totally unnecessary).

During the Jim Crow era, starting about 1890, most southern states effectively prevented 90%+ of the blacks from voting. This lasted until 1964. Rjensen (talk) 05:41, 28 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

18th Admenment

[edit]

I just want to know about the people that I in their realigion it said that they have to drink. like for example, if in my realigion it said that I have to drink but the 18th Admenment said I can't then I don't know what to do. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 24.193.15.224 (talk) 00:07, 2 March 2007 (UTC).[reply]

there were religious exemptions--communion wine was allowed. Rjensen (talk) 05:41, 28 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Radical Republicans

[edit]

One editor is strongly opposed to the terminology "Radical Republicans." So I rephrased the statement and used a quotation from a 2014 reliable source: "the Radical Republicans in Congress were attempting to use the military to create a biracial society. The army ensured black men could vote, black males in the South were enfranchised and they overwhelmingly voted Republican." quoting Nikki L. M. Brown; Barry M. Stentiford (2014). Jim Crow: A Historical Encyclopedia of the American Mosaic. p. 349.. Eric Foner, the leading historian of Reconstruction, says, "Most insistent on identifying and protecting the basic rights of the freedpeople were the Radical Republicans, longtime foes of slavery and advocates of freedom as a principle limited to 'neither black nor white.'" Eric Foner (1999). The Story of American Freedom. pp. 104–5. Rjensen (talk) 11:33, 25 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
