In many ways, Reconstruction was a failure. By 1877, southern states were once again controlled mainly by elite whites. The gains that African Americans had briefly made in voting and holding elected office were undermined, often by the violence of groups such as the KKK. Poor whites and blacks alike suffered under tenant farming and sharecropping. Any hope for equality disappeared as efforts to create separate spaces for the races began to emerge. In Georgia, cotton remained the most important crop even though it was hard for a middle-class farmer, much less a sharecropper, to make a decent living. Which evidence does the writer include to support the idea that Reconstruction was a failure? Check all that apply.
the rise of segregation
the problems of sharecropping
the loss of elite white leadership
the creation of the Ku Klux Klan
the undermining of African Americans’ suffrage
the failure of cotton as a major crop

In the compound republic of america, the power surrendered by the people is first divided between two distinct governments, and then the portion allotted to each subdivided among distinct and separate departments. hence a double security arises to the rights of the people. the different governments will control each other, at the same time that each will be controlled by itself.—madison, number 51 based on the quote, which of the following statements would madison have likely supported? development of political parties is necessary to ensure the security and stability of a democratic government. a government must have enough power to govern however, its power must also be limited by creating multiple branches within it. one government can not carry out the will of the people alone, therefore the establishment of two separate governments is necessary. a government must sometimes limit civil liberties of individuals to ensure the safety and security of all citizens.
