In what ways was life different depending upon the social class to which a person belonged?

Life may be, indeed, very different for people of different social classes.

Explanation:

An individual's social class directly influences the way in which he experiences life in society. For example: for a little boy or girl born to a poor family in a developing country - in which public services are not as well provided as in more developed countries - it will be more difficult for him to have access to proper housing conditions, nutrition, and vaccination in order to even survive its early years. Additionally, it might also be more difficult to have access to quality education and technology.

Therefore, people from different social classes view life differently due to the opportunities they are presented with and the experiences that they endure.

regarding the law, the 15th amendment was specifically designed thinking in the rights of black free men.

even though ratified on february 3, 1870, the promise of the 15th amendment would not be fully applied for a long time.poll taxes and literacy tests would allow southern states disenfranchise african americans. only in 1965 the voting rights for african americans would be actually able to vote in the south.

in 1965, president johnson signed the voting rights act, which aimed to overcome legal barriers that prevented african americans from voting as it was guaranteed by the 15th amendment to the u.s. constitution.
