jun 8, 1866 - 14th Amendment Ratified

Description:

The 14th Amendment states that states are prohibited from taking away rights from people (i.e. Freedmen and Women) and declared them as Citizens of the US. This made the South angry, as they could no longer oppress African Americans for their personal gain. This was a major step towards Reconstruction
