Answer:

All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the state wherein they reside.

Explanation:

The Fourteenth Amendment, which granted citizenship and equal rights to African Americans took effect on July 28th, 1868.  Although the Fourteenth Amendment was sent to Congress for ratification on June 16, 1866, it was not officially enforced until July 28th, 1868.  The Fourteenth Amendment was a pivotal step in African American’s fight for civil rights. The groundbreaking amendment, most notably granted citizenship and equal rights to African American citizens, including former slaves.  

The Fourteenth Amendment is broken into five sections, outlining the citizenship and rights granted to African Americans, the forbiddance and consequences for states that withhold basic liberties to African Americans, the new system for determining selectees for the House of Representatives after the nullification of the Thirteenth Amendment (three-fifths rule), and the national debt acquired during the Civil War.
