REVIEW OF CIVIL WAR AND RECONSTRUCTION

Unit 1

BCR #1 – Reconstruction and the Black Codes

Background – The South’s defeat in the Civil War (1861-1865) ended the institution of slavery. In the early years of Reconstruction, some Southern state legislatures passed laws that addressed the new social, political, and economic relationship between Southern whites and the formerly enslaved African Americans. These new Southern state laws were called black codes.

Directions – Carefully read the examples of black codes printed below. Then use the black codes and your knowledge of history to write a brief constructed response (BCR) that answers the questions that follow.

Black Codes

1. Every negro who shall be found absent from the residence of his employer after ten o’clock at night, without a written permit from his employer, shall pay a fine of five dollars, or…shall be compelled to work five days on the public road, or suffer corporal [bodily] punishment….

2. No negro shall be permitted to rent or keep a house within said [county]…

3. Every negro is required to be in the regular service of some white person, or former owner, who shall be held responsible for [his] conduct….

4. No negro…not in the military service shall be allowed to carry fire-arms…without the special written permission of his employer….

5. No negro shall sell, barter, or exchange any articles of merchandise or traffic within said [county] without the special written permission of his employer…
