A law passed to protect the rights of freed slaves and to guarantee equal rights to blacks
on equal rights and the education of African Americans
Blacks and whites did not have equal rights!!! :(
The term for equal rights sought by Blacks after the Civil War was civil rights. After the Civil War, slavery was abolished, but they did not have any rights that other people had. They could not vote, go to the same schools or churches as whites, could not eat in many restaurants or enjoy entertainment venues that white people attended.
Andrew Johnson's veto of the Civil Rights Bill of 1855 weakened his effort for a lenient reconstruction policy. The Republicans found enough votes to overturn Johnson's veto, and drafted the Fourteenth Amendment. The Amendment, which was ratified, required southern states to ratify it if they wanted to reenter the union. The bill gave equal rights to blacks, and the southerners were forced to ratify.
