Explain the case of U. S. V. Cruikshank (1876). What happened leading to the case? What did the Supreme Court rule and what was their reasoning? What effect did this have in the South as discussed in the Video?

Answer and Explanation:

The events that led to this case happened at the time of the southern reconstruction, when, during the election for the governor of the Lusiana, several conflicts were established between whites and blacks, leading to the Colfaz Massacre in 1873, where more than 100 blacks were murdered by a fire caused by the whites. This meant that a group of white militants, including Cruikshank, were put on trial for violating federal laws and the Congressional Enforcement Act of 1870. They were convicted, but the supreme cord president overturned the convictions, saying that the correct was that accused men should go to state courts to stand trial and have protection.

The problem was that all the accused were white men who would be favored by the state courts of the southern states, who had a strong racism and recentness by blacks. The result of this was that blacks were increasingly at the mercy of the goodwill of whites, which allowed many abuses of the black population to occur, in addition to allowing the Ku Klux Klan to cause atrocities to blacks and to leave legally unharmed.

not really a history or a question at all.
