Using the following evidence create a thesis statement:
Evidence 1.
According to amendment 13, Section 1, it says Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction. I think it is a success because even tho it ended, people still go to jail for commiting a crime or not following the law.

"No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws." - 14th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution.
Evidence 3.
"The right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of race, color, or previous condition of servitude." - 15th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution
