Answer 1

Political opportunities for African Americans disappeared after a short time.

Step-by-step explanation:

Reconstruction is the period in the history of the United States between 1865 and 1877 in which attempts were made to solve the problems that arose after the Civil War, in which the Confederacy and slavery were defeated. The goals of the Reconstruction were the reintegration of the secessionist southern states, the solution of the status of the leaders of the Confederation, as well as the solution of the legal and constitutional status of the freed black slaves. There were violent conflicts and disagreements over how to approach these problems, and in the late 1870s it was clear that the Reconstruction had failed to integrate freed slaves equally into the legal, political, economic, and social systems. It ended in 1877, when Southern white supremacists defeated Republicans in elections and took control of all southern states.
