He was elected as member of the Georgia Legislature in the 1868 election. As a black man engaging in politics it was seen as 'unnatural' by many of the Southern Whites. Along with this racial science was beginning to grow momentum in the era which also did not help the position of blacks at the time. Taking these into the account the Ku Klux Klan den's of Georgia went out of their way to put a stop to 'Northern Carpetbagger' ideas and halt Reconstruction by violence and intimidation, thus Abram Colby's tragic murder.
