What did the congress pass to outlaw the black codes?
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!!

In the 1400 Portuguese sailed along the coast of west Africa where were they heading and why?
they were heading to southern Africa and why becauseThe Portuguese Empire (Portuguese: Império Português) was the first global empire in history, with territories in South America, Africa, India and South East Asia. It was also the longest lived of the modern European colonial empires, spanning almost six centuries, from the capture of Ceuta in 1415 to the handover of Macau in 1999.
Portuguese explorers began exploring the coast of Africa in 1419, making use of the latest developments in navigation, cartography and maritime technology such as the caravel, in order that they might find a sea route to the source of the lucrative spice trade. In 1488, Bartolomeu Dias rounded the Cape of Good Hope, and in 1498, Vasco da Gama reached India. In 1500, by an accidental landfall on the South American coast for some, by the crown's secret design for others, Pedro Álvares Cabral would find and lead to the establishment of the colony of Brazil. Over the following decades, Portuguese sailors continued to explore the coasts and islands of East Asia, establishing forts and factories as they went. By 1571, a string of outposts connected Lisbon to Nagasaki: the empire had become truly global, and in the process brought great wealth to Portugal.
