Lincoln’s Plan Pardon Confederate officials Re-admit Southern states for loyalty pledge of 10% population No management of Southern governments Set up Freedman’s Bureau to help African-Americans with freed status

Johnson’s Plan Pardoned Confederates who pledged loyalty to the US Re-admitted Southern states if they made slavery illegal Allowed old Congressmen to return to office Civil Rights provided by state governments Allowed the passage of Black Codes and Jim Crow Laws

Radical Republicans’ Plan Punish the South Placed Southern states under military control Extended more services through Freedman’s Bureau Demanded full and equal citizenship for African-Americans Gave adult former slaves the right to vote

Black Codes Laws designed to take away the rights and freedoms of African-Americans Kept superiority of whites

Examples of Black Codes South Carolina- Workers shall not be absent from the workplace without the permission of their boss. Mississippi- Black may not quit their working contract. If a runaway employee is caught, the capturer is paid $5 per employee and 10 cents per mile. South Carolina- Black people may not have guns. Mississippi- Blacks may not get employment as mechanics or building/repairing houses.

Jim Crow Laws Designed to separate people of different races. Passed as black codes became unconstitutional.

Examples of Jim Crow Laws Arizona- Whites may not marry anyone of color. Florida- There must be juvenile facilities separate for black and whites and must be at least ¼ of a mile apart. Louisiana- A black may not offer to shake hands with a white. This implies social equals. Tennessee- Separate buildings for black and white patients in hospitals for the insane.
