3. Rebuild the nation after 4 years of fighting
Protections of African Americans
1. Freedman’s Bureau – helped during Reconstruction; provided
emergency help and built schools throughout the South
2. 13th Amendment - ended slavery
3. 14th Amendment - defined citizenship, ALL citizens are entitled to
equal protection under the law
4. 15th Amendment – gave African American men the right to vote.
Presidential Reconstruction Plans (1865-1867)
Lincoln’s Plan (Never Enacted)
10% Plan – 10% of the population had to swear an
oath of loyalty; states had to accept the 13th
Amendment
Johnson’s Plan (1865-1867)
Very lenient; states had to ratify the 13th Amendment,
pardoned 13,000 Confederates
Congressional (Radical Republicans) Plan (1867-1877)
More strict plan that: created the Freedman’s Bureau,
proposed the 14th & 15th Amendments; kept
Confederate leaders from positions of power; created
5 military districts to protect former slaves and enforce
Reconstruction.
5. Military Districts in the South – oversaw & enforced
Reconstruction; tried to protect people from violence
Resistance to Reconstruction
1. Black Codes – discrimination laws passed to limit
rights and freedoms of African Americans
2. Violence & intimidation used by groups like the
Ku Klu Klan; lynching became common
3. Supreme Court ruled against civil rights laws
meant to protect African-Americans
4. Redeemer Democrats gained back control of
Southern governments
The End of Reconstruction
1. Compromise of 1877 – Hayes becomes president
through the 2nd Corrupt Bargain & ends Reconstruction
2. Jim Crow Era (1877-1954) –discrimination and
segregation period with grandfather clauses; Plessy V.
Ferguson - separate but equal
