Reconstruction and the Thirteenth and Fourteenth Amendments
Paper details
When the Civil War ended in 1865, there was a conscious effort by the Federal government to establish the status of former slaves as freemen and to integrate black Americans into the political mainstream. To assure this process, the United States passed the Thirteenth (1865) and Fourteenth Amendments (1868).
For this exercise, I would like you to analyze the impact of the Reconstruction Era on the South and the United States as a whole. You may consider the following points:
•The reasons why the Federal government created Reconstruction governments in the South and passed the Fourteenth Amendment.
•The major points of the Fourteenth Amendment and their impact on American political history.
•The reasons why the Fourteenth Amendment failed to protect the voting and property rights of black Americans and for almost 100 years, was not used as originally intended by Congress.
