the dred scott decision
the 14th and 15th amendments
tenant farming and sharecropping
black codes
The 14th Amendment granted citizenship and equal protection under the law to African - Americans, and the 15th Amendment prohibited the denial of the right to vote based on race. Jim Crow laws were a system of racial segregation and discrimination. They were designed to undermine the rights that African - Americans had gained through the 14th and 15th Amendments. For example, they restricted African - Americans' access to public facilities, education, and voting (through things like literacy tests and poll taxes that were not enforced equally).
The Dred Scott Decision was before Reconstruction (1857) and stated that African - Americans were not citizens. Tenant farming and sharecropping were economic systems that emerged after Reconstruction but were not directly related to the undermining of constitutional amendments. Black Codes were similar to Jim Crow laws but were more immediately after the Civil War (before Reconstruction was fully underway).
