That’s wrong
I apologize for the mistake. Here is the correct response:
They gained legal rights and protections, including the right to vote and hold office. This provided opportunities for African Americans to participate in the political process and have a say in their communities. Additionally, Reconstruction policies aimed to provide land and economic opportunities for freed slaves, although these efforts were often impeded by discriminatory practices and limited resources.
