The Reconstruction Era effectively ended in 1877 when federal troops were withdrawn from the South as part of a political compromise following the contested 1876 presidential election. This compromise, known as the Compromise of 1877, resulted in the Republican candidate Rutherford B. Hayes gaining the presidency in exchange for the withdrawal of federal support for Reconstruction efforts. The removal of troops allowed Southern states to enact Jim Crow laws and institute racial segregation, leading to a significant rollback of the civil rights gains made during Reconstruction. Consequently, this shift marked the beginning of a long period of disenfranchisement and oppression for African Americans in the South.
