Answer to Question 1

Answer: B

Answer to Question 2

Ideal Answer: The ideal answer should:
1. Define which states gave the most voting rights and other rights to free blacks.
2. Explain the various economic factors that reduced northern state interest in slavery.
3. Explain that the lack of economic investment in slavery in some states produced smaller black populations over time and therefore less animosity by whites towards blacks.
4. The New England states, particularly Massachusetts, extended the most rights to free blacks.
5. Conclude that northern states outside of New England with the largest free black populations were also the states that placed the most restrictions on black male voting.
