The Reconstruction By: Dustin Presley Tech in Ed Professor Peterson

- The Reconstruction refers to the period of rebuilding that the country went through during its time after the Civil War. Lincoln launched the Proclamation of Amnesty and Reconstruction in This lasted from What is the Reconstruction?

- The goal of Reconstruction was to readmit the South on terms that were acceptable to the North. It was to grant full political and civil equality for blacks and a denial of the political rights of whites who were the leaders of the secession movement. Purpose of Reconstruction

Three Major Dynamics - Restoration of the Union - Transformation of Southern Society - Enactment of Progressive Legislation favoring the rights of freed slaves

- During the Reconstruction, the South attempted to restore slavery. In 1876, Congress and President Johnson battled for control of Reconstruction. Congress won. Each Southern state now had to incorporate the 13th and 14th Amendments into their constitutions. The North and South

- Created by Congress in 1865 to distribute food and supplies, establish schools and redistribute additional confiscated land to former slaves and poor whites. - Many southerners did not like this Bureau. They thought of it as a threat to their way of life after the depression. The saw it as the Northerners attempt to redistribute their land to former slaves. The Freedmen’s Bureau succeeded in setting up schools in the South for nearly 250,000 free blacks nonetheless. The Freedmen’s Bureau

Jim Crow Laws - Series of anti-black laws, that touched every aspect of everyday life. - Blacks were regulated to states of second class citizens. - Represented the legitimization of anti-black racism. - Christian ministers taught that Whites were the chosen people.

- Passed by Congress on January 31, 1865 and was ratified on December 6, The Abolition of Slavery, this Amendment provides that 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 their jurisdiction. The 13th Amendment

- Ratified on July 9, Granted citizenship to “all persons born or naturalized in the United States”. - This Amendment applies to slaves who were also recently freed. It also forbids states from denying any person life, liberty or prosperity, without due process of law. The 14th Amendment

- The 15th Amendment granted the right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any state on account of race, color, or previous condition of servitude. - Although African Americans were granted the right to vote, the Southern states effectively disenfranchised African Americans through the use of poll taxes, literacy tests and other means. The 15th Amendment

- The Ku Klux Klan was formed as a social club by a of Confederate Army Vets in Pulaski, Tennessee during the winter of Rise of the Ku Klux Klan

- From 1869 to 1871 the Klan’s goal was to destroy Reconstruction by murdering blacks and some whites that were active either in Republican politics or educating black children. Purpose of Ku Klux Klan

- The Klan, dressed in their white robes and hoods, burned down churches and schools and ran thousands of people out of their homes. Law enforcement was unable to stop these acts of terrorism. The Force Bill was passed in 1871 to prosecute the Klan, but little was done and not many were punished. Effects of Ku Klux Klan
