Answer 1

The correct answer is C. It expanded citizenship to include people of all races.

Step-by-step explanation

Amendment number 14 of the Constitution changed life in the United States because, when approved, the principle of the "right to citizenship by birth" was established for all citizens of the United States regardless of their skin color (exceeding the racism), because prior to the establishment of this Amendment, African Americans did not have the right to vote.. Therefore, it can be stated that the correct answer is C. It expanded citizenship to include people of all races.
