2. A. the 14th Amendment granted citizenship to “all persons born or naturalized in the United States,” which included former slaves recently freed.

3. A. True,  It was passed on March 3, 1865, in order to aid former slaves through food and housing, oversight, education, health care, and employment contracts with private landowners.

4. Andrew Johnson

He was the seventeenth president of the US and followed Lincoln after his assassination. He pardoned Confederate leaders. He provided an easy path back into the Union and did not protect blacks from the growing power of groups like the Ku Klux Klan.

5. C. The 15th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution granted African American men the right to vote by declaring that the "right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any state on account of race, color, or previous condition of servitude."

Question 7

"We hold it to be the duty of the Government to inflict condign [fitting] punishment on the rebel belligerents [fighters] .. . . The whole fabric of southern society must be changed, and never can it be done if this opportunity is lost. . . ."

The first sentence shows they obviously want revenge. As that was one of the reasons the Radical Republican Reconstruction was made. The last sentence, The whole fabric of southern society must be changed, and never can it be done if this opportunity is lost, shows they want to help and change the southern society in good ways. Which as I said about the first sentence, was a reason that the Radical Republican Reconstruction was made.
