- An idea of the Reconstruction that was very effective was the establishment of the Freedmen's Bureau.
- An idea that was not effective was the compensation of former slave holders.
Congress created the Freedman's Bureau during the Reconstruction era in order to integrate the now freed enslaved people into the Union. The Bureau did some good work such as:
- feeding millions of starving Americans
- building hospitals and providing medical care for free
- educating the formerly enslaved
There was however, the issue of compensating white slave owners for losing their enslaved people. This should have been reversed because enslaved people were not compensated for being enslaved and so wallowed in poverty for generations.
In conclusion, Reconstruction had some successes such as the good works of the Freedman's Bureau but it also had several failures such as the continued disenfranchisement of Black people at the time.
