The Civil Rights Act of 1866 • Granted citizenship rights to African Americans and guaranteed civil rights of all people except Native Americans • CONGRESS (RADICAL REPUBLICANS) WANTED THIS. JOHNSON DID NOT. • Johnson tried to VETO the bill • Was an attempt to outlaw black codes and led to the 14th amendment
Cycle of Poverty • Planting the crop: white landowners give land, seed, and tools in exchange for a share in the crop. Sharecroppers buy on credit. • Harvesting the crop: Sharecroppers give landowner the crop, the landowner sells it and takes his share • Cycle of debt: Sharecroppers OWED more than they EARNED and gave up more and more of the crop to the landowner
You will create images to represent each level in the cycle of poverty • Use the cycle we created in class, your book (page 560) to put these in your notebooks. • Your images must be colored (10 points: images for each step that represent the steps)
