Second Reconstruction Act [23rd March 1867] is an article written by Schulman (n.d.) and published on the main history website. Notably, the reconstruction Acts were enacted in the U.S. between 1867 and 1868, after the civil war that ended in 1865. The reconstructions were made to explain how the southerners would become members of the union again, and during this time, most of the southern region had military, who needed to ensure the laws were adhered to, and another war did not come up. Schulman (n.d.) explains the Second Reconstruction Act, which was made on 23rd March 1867, and it was aimed at supplementing the First Reconstruction Act, which left southerners confused on their role in the reinforcement of legislation.
