Fourteenth essentially reversed the 1857 Dred Scott decision by formally classing all former slaves as American citizens, plus anyone born in the United States. The Fifteenth Amendment of 1870 would give voting rights to freedmen, although suffrage would be unconstitutionally repressed in the Southern states.

How did the 14th and 15th amendment change the constitution?
The 14th Amendment outlawed slavery and granted civil rights and liberties to African-Americans. The 15th Amendment prohibited the government from denying a citizen the right to vote based on race.
How did the fourteenth and fifteenth amendments changed the lives of African Americans after slavery was abolished?
Actually it didn't change the lives of African Americans. Jim Crow laws were put into place so they would remain second class citizens. Some stayed on with the plantations they had work as slaves, but the plantation owner charged them rent to live and this kept them poor. If they wanted to leave it was nearly impossible because they didn't have any money.
How did the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments change the nature of the federal Union?
The 13th Amendment outlawed slavery in the union. Until the amendment was passed legality of slavery was left to the states to determine. The 14th and 15th amendments were emotional reactions to the abhorrent institution of slavery. Their scope was meant to diminish the ability of a state, or group of states, to effectively mount a future resistance to federal authority on the scale that came very close to succeeding in the civil war. The 14th amendment made the first 10 amendments weaker by delegating new authority to the federal government. The 9th and 10th amendments affirmed the right of the states to control issues within their borders. The 14th amendment took that right from the states and gave it to the federal government.
