Hi i need help on my DBQ queston
I clearly understand it but don't know how to set up my opinion in paragraph's the question is:
Using evidence from the following sources, compose an argument in which you agree or disagree wit hthe following statement:
"After the Civil War, the only way to truly enfranchise former slaves was by
effectively disenfranchising their former masters."
I choose to disagree with this statement because even though the slaves deprive there former masters they can still get threatened by other people like the kkk. so eather or they will still be treated the same.(in my opinion)
but the main thing is how am i suppose to put my own opinion in paragraphs...
