2. It was ratified on July 9th, 1868
It Granted citizenship to "all people born or naturalized in the United States," which included former slaves recently freed
3. Amendment is still the same it hasn't changed.
4.
It happened when the slaves were being freed so they made them citizens
It means if you are born in the United States of America you are an United States citizen.
