The Reconstruction Era was a pivotal time for African American political participation, marked by the Fifteenth Amendment and the rise of Black legislators. Despite facing opposition from groups like the Ku Klux Klan, African Americans made strides in representation. Religion played a key role in mobilizing the community, with Black churches at the forefront. The era also saw the development of public education and economic reforms, but ended with a resurgence of White supremacy and the establishment of Jim Crow laws.
