Black history after the US Civil War was tough on former slaves and their extended families. In the South after Reconstruction, white people regained political control of the former southern Confederate states and passed segregation laws to keep Afro Americans from voting for example. Even in the North there was perhaps "silent segregation" in the large cities. This was done to hut Black people because of racist ideas that amendments to the US Constitution could not cure.
