Based on the sources and your knowledge of social studies, analyze the social and economic effects of the Civil War on Louisiana and its people.
Answer: See in explanation
Explanation:
The destruction that took place in Louisiana plantations was a sight to behold. With both Union and Confederate armies bombing buildings and destroying towns, estimated losses add up to around $500 million.
Because of their freedom, and all this chaos among the folk in power, the African American people tried to get land of their own. The government even promised these people "40 acres and a mule". Of course, this promise went unfulfilled, around 5% of former slaves in Louisiana and other ex-Confederate states owned their own land. Those who did have land didn't have the funds to develop it. Louisiana wasn't doing well for the first year after the emancipation, but in 1871 cotton farmers started a new union, the state only grew from there.

American History. please help
Answer:
The 14th Amendment was one of three "Reconstruction Amendments." The other two were the 13th and 15th Amendments. The 14th Amendment is currently the longest Amendment to the constitution and was ratified in 1868. One of the major components of the 14th Amendment was that it granted citizenship to all persons born or naturalized in the United States. This was hugely important because it made sure that the recently freed slaves were officially citizens of the United States of America. This guaranteed that they were guaranteed the rights given to United States citizens. The Bill of Rights contains ten of those very important rights. This means that recently freed slaves now have things like the freedom of speech, the right to bear arms, and a host of court protections when accused of a crime.
Explanation:
I would say B. However, please do read the question again.
If you think differently.
Go with the answer you think best.
Otherwise, B is the best choice!
DONT TRUST ME ON THAT.
Imagine you are a soldier after the American Revolutionary war. The Articles of Confederation are in place and the government has no money to pay you for your work in the war. You are about to lose your land and home. Do you agree with the people that participated in Shay's Rebellion? Why or Why not?
Shay's Rebellion was a reaction to the financial and political difficulties faced by the early United States after the American Revolution. The soldiers who fought in the war, including the imagined soldier in this scenario, were owed large amounts of money by the government and were on the verge of losing their homes and land. It can be understood that they might agree with the participants in Shay's Rebellion as they were facing similar financial difficulties and wanted their rights to be protected.
However, it can also be argued that resorting to violence and rebellion is not an appropriate solution to address the issues faced by the government and the citizens. A more reasonable solution would be to seek political and legal means to address the grievances and work towards a more stable and just system.

Snake Story
Becky moved off of the porch slowly, backing through the door and into the house. She slammed the sliding glass door shut and stood for a moment, relieved to have something solid between her and the snake on the porch.
The glass was cool under her hands despite her pounding heart. She tried to slow her breathing. She was safe, at last, inside. Or was she? How had that snake gotten into the screened-in and walled-up back porch. If it could get in there, it's possible it could get inside where she was as well.
Becky wasn't someone who was normally skittish about wild things. She'd handled snakes before, picked up lizards many times, caught frogs in the garage and let them go. But snakes seemed to always catch her off guard. They would turn up when least expected. She would see them out of the corner of her eye and just the surprise of it would make her jump; her adrenalin would pump, her heart would thump, and her panic would take over.
What was she going to do? She couldn't just stand there waiting for the snake to decide to leave. What if it were venomous? It didn't look like a viper, but it could be. She would need to get out there soon to water the plants.
"What this requires is some advanced planning," she said out loud to her cat, Louie. "And, I will probably have to go 'once more into the fray' kitty," she said, looking in the cat's direction for emphasis.
"First things first, though," she said. The cat meowed back. It often did that, having become used to being talked to. "Let's look that fellow up," Becky said walking to her bookshelf.
"Let's see, snakes," she said, thumbing through her reptile and amphibian identification book. "It's brown and gray, with some black. With a pattern that looks ... there it is," she said thumping the page so hard that Louie jumped. "Not venomous," she said, triumphantly.
"It's an oak snake, Louie," she returned the book and strode over to her closet. "Not venomous, but I am still not taking chances," she said.
She reached into the closet and pulled out her heaviest jacket. It was lined and stuffed thick with lots of padding. Then she found her mittens and a pair of rubber boots. She knew even non-venomous snakes would sometimes threaten to strike when scared. "And that threat would work on me," Becky said aloud again, though Louie had no idea what she was talking about.
"It's 90 degrees outside, Louie," she said, "so get the iced lemonade ready for when I return."
It wasn't much of a plan, but it was the best she could come up with. With her armor on, she was already sweating when she slowly pushed open the sliding glass door and stepped back on to the porch.
She was pretty sure the snake would slither away from her presence. She propped open the outside door, and hoped she could shoo the snake in that direction.
Sweat dampened her arms and collected on her face. She spread her arms out, and took a few steps toward the snake. There was so much for it to hide beneath. Becky regretted the rocking chairs and all the plant stands between where the snake was in the corner and the door to the outside.
At first it seemed like the snake was just going to remain where it was, flicking its tongue every now and then. Becky waved her arms, lunged in its direction, and stomped her feet. It sat there, coiled in the corner, as if perfectly happy to remain there. In a fit of desperation, she picked up one side of the rocking chair the snake was under and let it drop. The snake jumped, raised its head like it was going to strike, and then stayed right where it was.
"Snake," Becky said, "This is not how it works. You have got to go." The snake moved its head back and forth, swaying a bit, and that gave Becky an idea.
She had read somewhere that snakes can "hear" thanks to the ability to process vibrations through the bone in their jaw. This awareness of vibrations in the ground was one reason it was very hard to sneak up on snakes. She quickly realized that getting the snake out was going to be a lot easier than she had thought.
Becky turned on the radio she kept on the porch and lowered it to the ground, pointing in the snake's direction. She adjusted the controls so that the bass was as high as it could go. Then she cranked up the volume. She envisioned the snake swaying to the sounds of "Dancing Queen by Abba, and then leaving the porch and going far far away.
Coming back into the house she began peeling off the now damp armaments she had put on earlier. "Louie, there is more than one way to skin a snake," she said laughing. She watched as the snake uncoiled and moved cautiously in the direction of the door. Bending down to pick up Louie Becky sighed and stroked his head. "'Cause no one ever wants to skin a cat sweetie
The glass was cool under her hands despite her pounding heart. She tried to slow her breathing. She was safe at last inside.
