Answer:

The 14th Amendment achieved equal rights for black people and protected newly freed slaves

Step-by-step explanation:

At the end of the American Civil War, the 14th Amendment to the US Constitution was passed. It stated that no state could take away life, liberty, or property without being supported by legal process. Giving black people equal rights and protecting newly freed slaves . It turned out that the corporations taking advantage of this breach in the law went to the courts and demanded the same rights because they were also a person. A legal person. There began, in the mid-nineteenth century, the change in the role of corporations, which went from insignificant to ubiquitous as the church, the monarchy and the communist party were in other times.
