The Drafting of The Constitution (18h 10min, may 25, 1787 y – 18h 38min, sep 17, 1787 y)
Description:
The drafting of the constitution was very important for black rights, because many of theirs were being taken away. A huge compromise at the convention decided that slaves should only be counted as 3/5 of a person. This enforced the idea that non-white people are lesser. Also in the constitution slavery was not outlawed.
