Question

1. what freedoms does sec. 7 of the mississippi black codes allow for african - people? 2. in what ways does sec. 7 of the mississippi black codes restrain the freedoms of african - people?

Explanation:

Section 7 of the Mississippi Black Codes was part of a set of laws aimed at controlling the newly - freed African American population after the Civil War. To answer these questions, one would need to analyze the specific text of section 7. Generally, these codes were restrictive, but might have allowed some basic labor - related freedoms like the ability to enter into labor contracts. However, they also restricted freedoms by imposing vagrancy laws and limiting mobility.

Answer:

1. To accurately determine the freedoms allowed, one must closely examine the text of section 7. It may have allowed for some limited labor - related freedoms such as the ability to enter into legal labor contracts.
2. It restricted freedoms by imposing vagrancy laws (if a person was unemployed they could be arrested), and by limiting the ability to move freely as they might be required to have proof of employment or a labor contract at all times.
