The energy drink brand promotes its Monster Energy Girls at events. Coca-Cola has agreed to swap some brands and buy a 17% stake in Monster Beverage Corp. for about $2.15 billion, increasing its bet on the burgeoning energy-drink market. The move is part of a deal that will include the transfer of Coca-Cola's energy drinks NOS, Full Throttle, Burn, Mother and Play to Monster, according to a statement.
Reconstruction was successfeul in some ways, and not in others. In the lives of slaves, Reconstruction was not very successful, although it freed slaves, it did not provide them with the proper political equality they had hoped. States passed black codes which were aimed at limiting black political equality.
During Reconstruction, African Americans were better off than they had been before (obviously) and better off than they would be in the years following Reconstruction. So you can say that Reconstruction improved their lives while it was happening but did not do much to help them in the long run.ost Southern States passed Black Codes that severely restricted the rights of African Americans. Although they were guaranteed civil rights under the Fourteenth Amendment, their rights were violated with abandon.
