The Supreme Court decision

the Fifteenth Amendment by stating that

undermined, Congress was not able to punish the states that violated the civil rights of the African Americans.

Explanation:

The 15th amendment in the US constitution grated the right to vote for the African Americans. But the court said that the right to vote to the African Americans was not properly granted, it prohibited the exclusion from voting on racial grounds.

The Supreme Court undermined the 14th and 15th amendment as the court ruled that the Congress was not able to punish or force the states that violates the civil rights of the African American people. These amendments was made to rectify all the injustices made to the African American people which had resulted from the slavery period.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
