During the reconstruction, in 1859, freedmen's aid organizations were established and in mid 1865 they started establishing schools. This organization was created to keep the future of freed-people before the northern public. Another  non-government organization was the Freedmen's Bureau. The goal of the Freedmen's Bureau was to provide food, shelter, clothing, medical services, and land to displaced Southerners. The bureau also helped assist the aid societies by renting buildings, providing books and transportation, and offering protection for students and teachers against the opponents of black literacy.

The south was very, very racially violent and didn't like the reconstrction. African Americans and radical rebulicans were trying to make everyone realize that everyone is equal, but the democrats were allowing african americans legal freedom but little more. Black Americans succeeded in getting citizenship for freed people. They then begun to fight for legal, political, and social implications of American citizen ships. However the resistance in the south continued and Reconstruction eventually collased, meaning limits of human rights for about a century more.

Reconstruction ended when northerners abandoned the cause of the formerly enslaved and Democrats recaptured southern politics. Between 1868 and 1877, and especially after the Depression of 1873, economic issues supplanted Reconstruction as the foremost issue on the national agenda. The biggest threat to Republican power in the South had been the violence and intimidation of white Democrats.
Democrats threatened to boycott Hayes’s inauguration. Rival governments arose claiming to recognize Tilden as the rightfully elected president. Republicans, fearing another sectional crisis, reached out to Democrats. In what became known as the Compromise of 1877, Democrats conceded the presidency to Hayes on the condition that all remaining troops would be removed from the South and the South would receive special economic favors. Hayes was inaugurated in March 1877.

General William T. Sherman was trying to help the freed people by setting aside land in Georgia and south carolina for them to live. However because Sherman didn't have the authority to confinscate and distribute land this plan never fully took effect. Freedman's Bureau agents in fact said they should plan to go back to work as wage laborers for their former enslavers. In working to ensure that crops would be harvested, agents sometimes coerced formerly enslaved people into signing contracts with their former enslavers. all hope for land distribution was lost when Thaddeus Stevens and Charles Sumner’s proposed land reform bills were tabled in Congress.

The government was in favor of white people. Then, with the radical Reconstruction there was political violence resulting in organized groups like the KKK etc., there purpose was to destroy the Reconstruction of government, to kill or intimidate black and white Republican officials and use violence to prevent people from voting in the south and get involved in politics. White citizens tried to restore white-supremacy in the south. The period known as ''Radical Reconstruction'' black Americans were given many basic rights by Congress like, official citizenship and the right to vote. the government wasn't functioning well enough to protect black citizens and politics were broken.

Education in the South started with former clandestine schools that were taught by literate Black men and women. Schools in the South after the civil war were funded by the Freedman's Bureau. The bureau was extremely influential in helping education in the South at the time. In 1860s 50 teachers were active but only 7 were in the entire state of Georgia. Night schools and sabbath-day classes were also held to teach adults on how to write and read. Adults made up about 1/3rd of the students attending school in the South.
