A few reasons Presidential Reconstruction failed after the Civil War ended was it did not address how former slaves would be accepted as citizens in the South and the civil rights acts previously enforced during Abraham Lincolnâ??s were suddenly declared unconstitutional by the Supreme Court. These events allowed for the southern elite to reclaim authority over the South by establishing Jim Crow laws.

What was Radical Reconstruction and what were the consequences of its failure?

Radical Reconstruction was a period from 1867 to 1877 during which Congress, dominated by the Radical Republicans, implemented measures to rebuild the South and secure civil rights for freed African Americans following the Civil War. This included the establishment of military districts in the South, the passage of the 14th and 15th Amendments, and the creation of new state governments. The failure of Radical Reconstruction led to the resurgence of white supremacy, the establishment of Jim Crow laws, and systemic disenfranchisement of Black voters, resulting in decades of racial segregation and inequality that persisted well into the 20th century.

Radical Reconstruction was the name of one of the phases of reconstruction: the one instigated by a faction that called themselves the Radical Republicans.
