14th Amendment to the Constitution Was Ratified. On July 28, 1868, the 14th Amendment to the United States Constitution was ratified. The amendment grants citizenship to "all persons born or naturalized in the United States" which included former slaves who had just been freed after the Civil War.

The fourteenth amendment is part of the civil war amendments, following the end of the civil war. This amendment gives anyone citizenship who is born or naturalized into the United States.

I hope this helps!
