Young person your question is not a complete sentence and your names or not spelled correctly. But I will answer your question. The two people you are asking about are W.E.B. Dubious and Booker T. Washington. Booker T. Washington want Black to learn a trade and become a asset to white America, in other words white would have to come to us to get things repair are fix or built and later we would apply for equality in other area like schools in eating together and government position. W.E.B. Dubious wanted full equality now he did not want to want he believed that Black America had wanted long enough but he only believed that we had the talented tenth of Black people that was available now for position in government and other high offices. I hope this answer your question.

Asked by Wiki User

The Black Codes were laws passed on the state and local level mainly in the rural Southern states in the United States to restrict the civil rights and civil liberties of African Americans. While some northern states also passed legislation discriminating against African Americans before the Civil War, the term Black Codes is most commonly associated with legislation passed by Southern states after the Civil War in an attempt to control the labor, movements and activities of African Americans.

What did the congress pass to outlaw the black codes?

Asked by Wiki User

Andrew Johnson was president at this point in the Reconstruction, and he allowed things like this to go on because he was a southerner himself, but once congress came back from recess, they impeached him. This was partly because of the Black Codes and partly because of his lienient rules for CSA states to be re- admitted to the union. Congress then passed the 14th and 15th amendments, the Reconstruction act (every state except tenessee in the CSA was to be occupied with troops) and the enforcement acts (made black terrorist groups unconstitiutional). So i guess you could say that congress basically impeached Johnson and passed all these acts and amendments as a response to the Black codes. I hope this answers your question!!
