Braking News!!!!!!!!! (CIVIL WAR)!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi I'm Charlee Rediger and I'm going to tell you some braking news. The Civil War rights act of 1866 happened. The congress intended to refuse to reverse the "Black Codes". The African Americans had things that they could own property, bring lawsuits, and marry legally. Then the 14t amendment happened. Then the 14th amendment was proposed by congress, it gave citizenship to the African Americans. Then made the bill of rights cover of all African Americans. The Freedmen's Bureau started in 1865. It was a temporary agency. It helped formerly enslave people and white southerners. It had also established hospitals. The will be a election in 1868 General Ulysses S.

He was a famous General of the Civil War. They had plantations they could not use slave labor! They were payed very low .hey had to carry there belongings in a bag. They had to sell crops to pay there landowner. Then the 15th amendment happened on February 1870 they accepted women and American Indians. Then there were some problems that happened in the south the damage had been great!, there plantations were ruined, the roads were blocked with rubble, and there were no established governments. Then suddenly the reconstruction happened! A guy by the name of Andrew Johnson he made a plan. He wanted to follow Lincoln's plan hat he had, he pardoned southerners who took oath.

Then the Black Codes broke out!!! The new Southern Governments had adopted the "Black Codes". The black codes had applied to the African Americans. The freedmen were not allowed to vote, and they were not allowed to vote or even work certain jobs so the people had to go look for other jobs to support there family. The congress people felt that they didn't think that the south did not want to end slavery. Thanks for reading about the Braking News! I'm Charlee Rediger have a GOOD DAY!!!!!
