former enslaved African Americans
how did AfricanAmericans rights change before, during, and after reconstruction?
When African Americans were first guaranteed the right to vote during Reconstruction, most of them voted for Republican candidates. This was because Southern Whites who were against Reconstruction mostly belonged to the Democratic Party.
During Reconstruction, the constitutional question the government was concerned about was giving African Americans the right to vote. They were also concerned about their civil rights.
As early as 1868 Supreme Court Chief Justice Salmon P. Chase, a leading Radical during the reconstruction, made many decisions with the Supreme Court that weakened African Americans' civil rights. He continued to segregate them and deny them rights as voters.
