Reconstruction 1865-1877

Reconstruction Re- to do again Construct- build Reconstruction- to build again What is being “reconstructed”? Our country was badly damaged by the Civil War…emotionally and physically. Emotionally-there were lots of bad feelings between the Northern and Southern states Physically-homes, farms, hospitals were destroyed…particularly the South

What was happening in the South? Livestock (farming animals) had been killed Plantations and industries were destroyed Production levels slowed down because there was no more slave labor Sharecropping began in the South. A tenant or sharecropper agreed to give the landowner, as rent, a portion of the crop raised from his labor. Sharecropping kept newly freed slaves in debt to landowners.

AIMS of Reconstruction Abraham Lincoln Preserve the Union and end Civil War quickly 13th Amendment African- Americans Reunite families, Build churches Equal rights: land, education, voting United States Congress Fix all the problems: 13, 14, 15 amendments Freedmen’s Bureau Southerners Return to a normal way of life Wanted to continue to be treated better than blacks Black Codes written to punish African-Americans

Freedmen’s Bureau The Freedmen's Bureau was a federal agency established in 1865.  It was established to help and protect emancipated slaves (freedmen) during their transition from a life of slavery to a life of freedom. The Freedmen’s Bureau helped former slaves gain land, get jobs, and build schools.
