How did ww2 affect american farming

Hello,

As the war approached, it got worse for farmer... The United States responded. First, the U.S. decided to send its destroyers to hunt the U-Boats and keep shipping lanes open. Hormel had introduced the canned meat product Spam in the 1930s. It proved to be an ideal combat ration because it could be shipped easily and wouldn't spoil for long periods of time. Soldiers could fight only as long as they had food to fuel their bodies. So, farmers were exhorted to produce even more.

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.
