ANSWER:

The rights that Blacks gained after the Civil War, was short lived because of organizations such as the KKK (Klu Klux Klan).

Such groups terrorized Blacks into not voting, ending any job or educational opportunities that they may have had.

Once Reconstruction had ended in 1877, and the last of the Union troops were pulled out of the South, it would get even worse.

It would be another 100 years later, before Blacks would be able to enjoy the rights they were given back in the 1860's.
