Legislation Reconstruction Acts (1867) South was divided into five military districts Guarantee land ownership for African- Americans (failed) Mass arrests of former Confederates (failed) Civil Rights Acts (1875) Guaranteed equal treatment in public places

13th Amendment Bans slavery in the United States “Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States, or any place subject to jurisdiction.”

14th Amendment Redefines American citizenship All citizens guaranteed equal legal protection Right to file a lawsuit or serve on a jury

15th Amendment No citizen of the US can be denied the right to vote based on race, color or previous status as a slave
