Jim Crow laws were passed and discrimination became part of the society. It wasn't until the 1960's and the Civil Rights Movement that "separate but equal" was found to be illegal.
The Reconstruction period effectively ended with the Compromise of 1877, which resolved the disputed 1876 presidential election. In this agreement, Republican Rutherford B. Hayes was awarded the presidency in exchange for the withdrawal of federal troops from the South, leading to the end of Reconstruction efforts. This withdrawal allowed Southern states to reassert control and implement discriminatory laws, marking a significant setback for African American civil rights.
the year was 1877
The Reconstruction era ended in 1877, primarily due to the Compromise of 1877, which resolved the disputed 1876 presidential election. As part of the compromise, Republican Rutherford B. Hayes was awarded the presidency in exchange for withdrawing federal troops from the South, effectively ending federal enforcement of Reconstruction policies. This withdrawal led to the resurgence of white supremacy and the establishment of Jim Crow laws, undermining the rights of African Americans and reversing many Reconstruction gains.
The North did not gain much out of reconstruction. They did win the war and help to end slavery. However, reconstruction was not very successful and the north soon lost interest. This caused the south to regain control of their own states. While slavery was ended, African-Americans were still treated badly and held no rights.
The Reconstruction era began in 1865 and ended in 1877.
It restricted the rights of African American citizens and was the catalyst to segregation
Jim Crow laws are a backlash against Reconstruction policies after Reconstruction ended. Most African American lawmakers were unseated before the Jim Crow laws were passed.
African American Lives ended in 2008-02.

During the Reconstruction era, approximately 2,000 African Americans were elected to public office at various levels, including local, state, and federal positions. Notably, 16 African Americans served in the U.S. Congress during this period, with figures like Hiram Revels and Blanche K. Bruce becoming significant representatives. This marked a historic moment for African American political participation, although their influence diminished significantly after Reconstruction ended.
It ended in 1968

No. They passed them to separate whites from blacks and keep African-Americans in an inferior social and economic position.
The type of government that the Americans did want was a african american because by the time slavery ended african american were free but not treated fairly.
After Reconstruction ended, segregation laws became known as "Jim Crow laws." These laws enforced racial segregation in the South, institutionalizing discrimination against African Americans in various aspects of public life, including education, transportation, and voting. They were named after a minstrel show character and were designed to maintain white supremacy and control over the African American population. Jim Crow laws remained in effect until the Civil Rights Movement of the 1960s.
Reconstruction ended in 1877 with the consequence that many of the protections African Americans had benefited from under Reconstruction were repealed locally or no longer enforced. Without the federal government ensuring some measure of equality, many - if not most - African Americans in the South became effectively disenfranchised. Also - Reconstruction had been carried out under the Republican Party. When it ended, the Democratic party - as the opposition to the Republicans - was extremely anti-African American (at least the Southern Democrats were) and seized control of the Southern governments for most of the next century. Since it was so anti-African American at the time they really were not likely to field any African American candidates and since only Democrats stood any chance of election that meant no African Americans were going to get elected. The situation remained that way until the start of the Civil Rights movement after WW II.
It did not lead to long-term civil rights for African Americans. Many of its reforms were overturned when Reconstruction ended.
