The correct answer is: "the Enlightment period".
The Enlighment movement emerged in Europe and was constituted by philosophers that promoted Reason and the scientific method over medieval superstition and religious dogmas, and the establishment of democratic societies where the power resided on its people, and not in monarchs or rulers "appointed by God". The resulting states enacted bills of civil rights for the first time in history, and implemented principles such as the division of powers or the social contract, through which citizens elected their governors by suffrage.
Such Enlightment principles were transferred to the American colonies, where the population claimed for political representation rather than being governed by foreigners that were appointed by a foreign king. Such claims were ignored and, influenced by the new democratic principles, the revolutionary movements for independence aroused.

<span>Between 1865 and 1866 Black Codes were passed to
withhold former slaves from political and civil rights. This means that the
Black Codes prohibited former slaves from voting. With this information, we can unmistakably
deduct that former slaves did not have the right to run for any seats whether
it be president, governor, senator, mayor etc. Another thing to note is that
Black Codes prohibited the carrying of weaponry. While this does not appear as
a political matter to the naked eye, it is a widely debated matter in
society. Because former slaves were not given this right we can assume that
they had no say in this matter politically; they did not have a say in passing
laws. </span>
