reconstruction failed because of the south's indifference to, laws and equality. However, the south was not completely to blame for the failure of reconstruction the government for example removed all federal troops from former confederate states leaving the south to establish all white governments.

Reconstruction was a time when the government thought that all people needed human rights even African Americans. Until this point African Americans had no rights. Some say it failed because blacks were not equal to whites after reconstruction.at the end of the period,blacks were still much poorer than whites and they were not able to vote and were subject to segregation.
