DBQ First Paragraph

Prompt: Evaluate the Southern reaction to the enfranchisement of African Americans from 1869-1900.

South was not in favor of the enfranchisement of the African American and did not like it.

Explanation:

Black enfranchisement meant when the African American got the right to vote in the United States of America. This was the passing of the fifteenth amendment of the United States constitution which gave the males belonging to black community right for voting.

With the enfranchisement, these got the right to vote and were given more equal opportunities and rights. But the southern people did not like this enfranchisement.
