The 14th Amendment gives citizenship to all of the people that were born in the Untied States, including African American that were now fully free. It lets people of any race to become a citizen of the United State. It also states no one can take away your life, liberty and property with out a permission. The 14th Amendment was important to the United States because it gave any person born here citizenship and rights reguardless of race and it also doesn't let the states tell the people whether they are or not. The 15th Amendment declares that African American men can vote and would be counted. It was apart of the Voting Rights Act that was passed in 1965. The 15th Amendment was important to the United States because it gave the right to vote to African American men after they had to pass really hard tests just to be able to vote in some states.
The 14th amendment states that if you are born or naturalized in the United States, then you are now a U.S citizen. They made this because most African Americans were born in the United States and were not technically citizens. It also stated that states weren't allow to take away "life, liberty, or property" without due process by the government. This helped farmers who were getting land taken away for no apparent reason. The 15th amendment states the no matter what race you were, you were allowed to vote. They made this law because African Americans weren't allowed to vote or have a say to the president or law makers about what they think is wrong. After the amendment was enacted they were now able to vote and have a word in what they say is wrong.
The 14th amendment grants citizenship to anyone and everyone born in the United States. Since Most African Americans were born in this country, they were granted citizenship. This amendment also said that former Confederate leaders couldn't hold office unless pardoned by Congress. This amendment was important to the United States because if it wasn't there, peoples feelings about African Americans might be the same as they were then because without this, they could posibly not be counted as citizens. The main idea of the 15th amendment was that it corrected the confusion and holes in the 14th amendment. The 14th amendment gave African Americans that were born in this country full citizenship and everything that came with it. The South found ways around that so the 15th amendment corrected that. Specifically, it stated that the government could not deny the right to vote because of race, color, or previous condition of servitude. This was important to the United States because without this, the Souths feelings could be the same and African Americans would not be able to vote as easily. Katie McEnery
