This document reports numbers of Black people in political/government positions of power. It shows numbers, positions, corresponding states as well as specific people who were in Congress and state officials. This is one of the most obvious examples of black advancement and leadership because it shows shockingly large numbers for black people in positions of power. It isn't as simple as saying "Black people held government positions" but provides numbers, names and exactly what job they held which makes this evidence more solid

President Hayes Removes Remaining Troops:

# data[].attributes.body
President Hayes has written how African Americans will now be able to have rights through Amendments 13, 14 and 15 and hopes for peace. I believe this represents the end of Reconstruction because one of the main goal was to give rights to African Americans. President Hayes had also stated how, I think, he returned Louisiana and South Carolina into Union States, but am not too sure. President Hayes nears the end of what he was speaking by saying, "Colored people shall have equal rights to labor, education, and the privileges of citizenship." President Hayes has concluded that the outcomes of The Reconstruction were good work and will benefit African Americans.

Daniel Chamberlain is saying how President Hayes has now sort of ruined the Republican Party in South Carolina because he had given the Democrats power in the state government. He continues his arguments by saying President Hayes gave the power to a party that had, "forces too powerful to be resisted." I believe this relates to The Reconstruction because Republicans were radical during this time and wanted all the control and have as much to be done by them instead of any other party and radical Republicans was certainly something that happened during The Reconstruction era.

This document is an act that was passed despite the veto by Andrew Jackson. While this act wasn't solely liberating for black people, it was an incredible step in advancements. This says that anyone born in America is declared to be a citizen and is therefore awarded the rights of a citizen. This meant that education, marriage, buying property and other rights that solely white people had held were now shared by everyone included under the umbrella of "American Citizen"

W.E.B. Du Bois Reflects on the Purpose of History:

# data[].attributes.body
W.E.B. Du Bois was reflecting upon how The Reconstruction era was being taught towards young children reading textbooks that tell lies about American history and how it does not include appropriate amount of African American history along with it. Du Bois continued his writing by saying how unfair it is towards the misrepresented African Americans and for the children. After all, children are the next generation, therefore the future's outcomes. I understand Du Bois' argument because it certainly will ruin the children by learning a one-sided textbook or teaching. I also observe how Du Bois' writing sounds a bit irritated, it does not sound professional, but more so irritated or frustrated, understandably so too.
