The Compromise of 1876 effectively ended the Reconstruction era. Southern Democrats' promises to protect civil and political rights of blacks were not kept, and the end of federal interference in southern affairs led to widespread disenfranchisement of blacks voters.

Reconstruction ended with the Compromise of 1877. The Compromise of 1877 allowed for Federal Troops to be removed from the South and for the South to deal with African-Americans as they chose in return for the acceptance of the Republican President, Rutherford B. Hayes.

In short, the Republicans gave away the farm and most African-Americans were disenfranchised by the early 1900s.
