Presidential and Radical Reconstruction

Question 5 • RMA FL-2100310-United States History Semester 1

Which of the following was a result of the Reconstruction Act of 1867? Check all of the boxes that apply.

Answer
A
Enslaved persons were emancipated
B
Former enslaved persons were given the right to vote.
C
Martial law was declared in the South.

Explanation

The Reconstruction Acts of 1867 divided the former Confederate states into military districts and placed them under military rule, effectively imposing martial law. They also required states to grant Black men the right to vote as a condition for readmission to the Union. Enslaved people had been emancipated by the Thirteenth Amendment, not by the Reconstruction Act.
