Hello!

The Reconstruction Act of 1867 gave all adult African Americans the right to vote.
However, this right to vote could not necessarily be exercised by all African American men. Later, poll taxes and literacy tests were introduced. These forced African Americans to pay to vote and required them to take a literacy test before voting. Many African Americans could not afford the poll taxes and were illiterate, which restricted their voting right.

I hope this helps you! Have a fantastic day!

Answer from: 23jazzy

gave all adult African Americans the right to vote.

Further Explanations:

During Reconstruction Era Congress repeatedly debated for the rights of former black slaves. They were able to put a halt to slavery and grant them citizenship by 1869. The act guaranteed equal advantage and access to the law. It was a direct strike on Black code of 1865 and 1866 which prohibits Civil rights and Civil liberties of African Americans and an attempt to rehabilitate ex-slaves to their previous condition. It granted all adult African American Right to vote.

The act was passed during the United states 40th congress in reference to the readmittance of southern States in the Union. The act fulfilled the requirement of the confederate states that were under federal control at the time of the American Civil war. The act also excluded the Tennessee that have ratified the 14th Amendment. The act laid to the establishment of five military districts in the south, each commanded by a general acting as the government of the region.The act solely ratified the 14th Amendment and granted polling rights to black citizens

Why did the federal government choose to give each tribal member a 25-year deed to the reservation land? this was the life expectancy of native americans at this time, and the government wished to grant rights for only a single generation. they considered this to be enough time to keep the area calm before they could take the land back again for sale. the united states government believed that the nutrients from the land would be depleted by the end of the deed. the government believed this would be enough time for the tribal members to become self-reliant and adapt to the farming lifestyle.
