By Miss O.

January 1, 1863 Executive order by President Lincoln Freed all the slaves in the southern states that had “rebelled”

After the Civil War, 3 amendments were added to the Constitution. Amendment = changes to the Constitution

1865 Made slavery illegal anywhere in the United States or its territories.

1868 Granted US citizenship to anyone born or naturalized in the United States and grants them equal protection under the law. All former slaves were now US citizens with rights.

1870 Guarantees the right to vote to any US citizen, regardless of race or color, even if he was a former slaves.

Re + construction  re-building The years directly after the Civil War are called “Reconstruction,” because the South was slowly being “rebuilt.”

Needed: housing, education, clothing, food, and jobs No money Destroyed farms, towns, and businesses

Government agency that tried to help freed slaves, or freedmen. Provided food and medicine Started schools and sent teachers to Virginia for the children

No jobs No training except for farming Plantation owners need help to replant large, ruined fields No money to pay the former slaves

Freedmen and poor farmers rented land from a landowner. Instead of paying money for rent, they promised to pay the owner with a share of the crop.

At first, sharecropping seemed like a good idea. Plantation owner was able to get his farm planted and working again. The sharecropper had a place to live and could earn money from farming. Problems between how much “rent” was and how much the crops were sold for.

Find jobs in the cities repairing railroads, towns, and bridges.

Confederate money had no value Banks in the South had closed. Economy no longer had slaves to rely on Virginia would have to build factories and shops in the cities to get their economy going in other ways rather than just farms. More people moved to the cities.

Southern states did not have legal governments any more Disorganized Congress’ plan to bring the South back into the Union.

Ban (end) slavery Each state had to rewrite their state constitution Give newly-freed African American men the right to vote Ask to be re-admitted to the Union Took almost 5 years
