During presidential Reconstruction efforts to help the newly freed slaves went well at first. The Freedmen's Bureau educated blacks and helped them adjust to their new way of life.

Once the Radical Republicans realized that they could override the president's veto, they sharply increased the pace and tone of Reconstruction.
