Answer:

The Civil Rights Act of 1866 extended all of the rights that had the white men to all the male citizens regardless color and race.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Civil Rights Act of 1866 declared that all men born in the United States regardless race, color, or previous condition of slavery or involuntary servitude had the right to make and enforce contracts, sue and be sued, give evidence in court, and inherit, purchase, lease, sell, hold, and convey real and personal property.

The exception were Native Americans because they were not considered citizens in 1866.
