These were all controlled by  generals. This was enforced so the south would follow the laws, treat African American men  and allow them to vote . The law that they had to follow was the 14th Amendment anyone who was born in the United states could become a citizen.The Southerners did not react to this well the created the KKK.The KKK wanted to throw out the republican party and the reconstruction act. ]]> 2016-08-31 22:35:21 UTC https://padlet.com/230224/wbkwgbjn1x61/wish/120970940 230224 https://padlet.com/230224/wbkwgbjn1x61/wish/120971231 Abraham Douglas was a slave for 25 years.

This is one of the first elections that African Americans had the right to vote.

So they put the military in the south to enforce the rules. The south did not like the military. So when the election came  around Tilden won by a popular vote but lost by one electoral vote. So the south and the north had an agreement.The north would withdraw the military if the south let Hayes be elected.]]> 2016-09-01 21:03:53 UTC https://padlet.com/230224/wbkwgbjn1x61/wish/121220254 230224 https://padlet.com/230224/wbkwgbjn1x61/wish/121227184 This is a political cartoon from the reconstruction of 1867. This Political cartoon is significant because the K.K.K was a threat to carpet baggers and scalawags. If the K.K.K found out that you were a Southern white republican. They would burn a cross in your yard or they could kill you]]> 2016-09-01 22:13:34 UTC https://padlet.com/230224/wbkwgbjn1x61/wish/121227184 https://padlet.com/230224/wbkwgbjn1x61/wish/121413999 Was reconstruction a success?  Yes it was. The salves were treated way better than before the war. Even though they still were treated bad they working for nothing. No man was owning another man.As Far as presidents and acts go the reconstruction was a fail. 

But since the the civil war was based on slavery. The slaves Were treated better the had full citizen ship, vote, and were free. So I do believe  that reconstruction was a success. ]]> 2016-09-02 19:15:18 UTC https://padlet.com/230224/wbkwgbjn1x61/wish/121413999
