Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
After the war many African americans lived in the south in poverty, many decided to go to the north states because they truly didn't have the same rights as the white people because the white people still hated them and didn't give them land that they were promised and if they did recieve land, the land was probably dry and couldn't grow much, but under the constitution they were equal. You can tell that the war ended in 1861, but they fighted for freedom way after that. You can tell by this that the war was pointless and they still didn't get their full rights for awhile.
