Best Answer

Republicans tried to help freedmen lots of times during reconstruction. One way they tried to help the freedmen was by creating the Freedman’s Bureau. The Freedman’s Bureau helped African Americans by making schools for them, giving them homes and protecting them. Another way they helped them was by sending troops there so the blacks could vote and the southerners that wanted to kill blacks were not allowed to do anything that could hurt the blacks in public.

Where there social circumstances that facilitated blacks serving in the Union army during the Civil War?

No. The 'social circumstances' were negative. At the beginning, the troops did not want to serve alongside blacks. Later they saw how the blacks might take some of the fatigue-duties off their shoulders. Then they saw that the blacks could help to fill up the rifle-ranks, enabling whites to earn quicker promotion. By the end of the war, quite a few blacks had earned credibility as front-line soldiers, some of them with distinction.
