What does Douglass Think is the most important thing to be done during Reconstruction and why does he think this will help the nation?

Frederick Douglass believed that the most important task during Reconstruction was securing full civil rights and political participation for formerly enslaved people. He argued that granting African Americans the right to vote and access to education would empower them to advocate for their own interests and integrate into society as equals. Douglass viewed these measures as essential for healing the nation and promoting true democracy, as they would help dismantle the systemic racism that had long plagued the United States. By ensuring equality and justice, he believed the nation could move forward united rather than divided.
