There is not really one single event leading to these amendments. These amendments followed directly after the Civil War. They all are products of reconstruction. The fundamental idea behind these amendments followed from the Emancipation Proclamation (which was of itself of dubious legality); these three amendments attempted to ensure that slavery was permanently banned, that persons of color would be considered citizens of the United States, and that the Federal Government had the basic right to ensure that states implemented these rights and freedoms.
