10. Who does the Fourteenth Amendment grant citizenship to?

Passed by the Senate on June 8, 1866, and ratified two years later, on July 9, 1868, the Fourteenth Amendment granted citizenship to all persons "born or naturalized in the United States," including formerly enslaved people, and provided all citizens with “equal protection under the laws.

The Fourteenth Amendment grants citizenship to people who were born in the United States. This was a huge deal, as it included former slaves.

The Fourteenth Amendment was part of the Civil War Amendments, which were composed of the Thirteenth, Fourteenth, and Fifteenth Amendments. These were all created to protect the rights of former slaves and try to include them as part of the United States.

With the Fourteenth Amendment, former slaves were now counted as actual citizens of the United States. This role made it so they had "equal protection of the laws." This meant they also had the right to "due process" and obtain all of the rights listed in the United States Constitution

the civil war was a fulfillment and completion of the constitution, not a revolution against it. changes in culture and society surely affected political life. lincoln hoped to bring the north and south together after the war by healing the nationand making people lose their resentment.
