In what ways did black reconstruction pave the way for the civil rights movement in the 1960's?

Black Reconstruction laid the groundwork for the Civil Rights Movement by establishing a framework for African American political engagement and asserting their rights as citizens. During this period, Black leaders gained political office, advocated for education, and pushed for civil rights, which inspired future generations. The legal precedents set during Reconstruction, alongside the establishment of Black institutions and communities, fostered a sense of identity and activism that would be crucial in the 1960s.
