Answer:

No.

Step-by-step explanation:

I do not believe the founding fathers of the American constitution set the foundation works for slavery and racism in the South with the ratification of the Three-Fifths compromise because, racism and slavery were already a major part of the 13 colony's, especially in the Southern state of Georgia.
