For a time, many positive changes occurred for blacks. Government programs, such as the Freedmen’s Bureau, and many private organizations gave blacks the opportunity to excel in academics, business, and politics. Hundreds of schools were opened; Freedmen were able to secure small tracts of land; and, with the ratification of the Fifteenth Amendment, blacks were able to vote. In many cases, their work ethic led them to achieve independence in business and politics, as many reaped the benefits of an education. Welcome homie <3
I just learned about this!! The civil war right?! Positive changes for them through the reconstruction years are that African Americans could become sharecroppers and Florida had to rewrite the constitution allowing African Americans the right to vote in order to rejoin the United States Of America. I'm not positive about this answer though! Good luck! I'm glad I could help!
During the time, in the beginning, the new deal didn't really welcome or help African Americans. When women had jobs sometimes they were fired in order for white men to take their place I think.
