Under President Abraham Lincoln's plan for Reconstruction, many former Confederate leaders were offered leniency and the opportunity for reintegration into the Union. Lincoln's approach emphasized forgiveness and reconciliation, allowing these leaders to regain their political rights if they took an oath of allegiance to the Union. However, following Lincoln's assassination in April 1865, his successor, Andrew Johnson, implemented a more lenient policy that led to significant backlash and resistance from Congress, ultimately resulting in stricter measures during Radical Reconstruction.

Under President Andrew Johnson's Reconstruction plan, former Confederate leaders quickly regained power in the South, often holding significant political positions. This led to the implementation of Black Codes, which severely restricted the rights and freedoms of newly freed African Americans. The resurgence of these leaders also fostered the rise of white supremacist groups like the Ku Klux Klan, further exacerbating racial tensions and undermining the goals of Reconstruction. Consequently, the lack of federal intervention allowed for the continuation of systemic racism and inequality in the region.
