The 14th and 15 amendments, yes, but also a legacy of the worst race relations in US history. After the Civil War, whites in the South felt so insecure about their place in their own society that they lashed out against blacks in horrid retribution that lasted until the Civil Rights era. 100 years of a different kind of slavery.
