Explanation:

The issue of the gold standard occurred in the late 19th century. While the United States government intend to back the U.S dollars with the gold standard, the farmers due to their debt situation opposed the move. They then went ahead to form a populist party. The populist party has populist as its doctrine and ideals. The party supports the struggle of the common people.

regarding the law, the 15th amendment was specifically designed thinking in the rights of black free men.

even though ratified on february 3, 1870, the promise of the 15th amendment would not be fully applied for a long time.poll taxes and literacy tests would allow southern states disenfranchise african americans. only in 1965 the voting rights for african americans would be actually able to vote in the south.

in 1965, president johnson signed the voting rights act, which aimed to overcome legal barriers that prevented african americans from voting as it was guaranteed by the 15th amendment to the u.s. constitution.
