The Reconstruction Amendments refer to the 13th, 14th, and 15th amendments to the United States Constitution, enacted between 1865 and 1870. The 13th Amendment abolished slavery and involuntary servitude, while the 14th Amendment granted citizenship and equal protection under the law to all persons born or naturalized in the U.S., including former slaves. The 15th Amendment aimed to secure voting rights for African American men by prohibiting the denial of the right to vote based on race, color, or previous condition of servitude. Together, these amendments were designed to address the inequalities and injustices faced by African Americans following the Civil War.
