During the Reconstruction Era Africans were supposed to be treated equally but they still weren't. They still had less rights than whites even after the thirteenth, fourteenth, and fifteenth amendments which were made to help give them equal rights. It was hard for Africans to own their own land for farming and other purposes because White people had first priorities over them. Blacks were not treated very well among a lot of people and organizations and this caused them to have a low economical position.
