How was Reconstruction a failure with regards to the rise of discriminatory groups in South Carolina?
In South Carolina, through a long political campaign, discriminatory groups were
able to temporarily nullify the 14th Amendment.
Discriminatory groups in South Carolina were able force African American
citizens to migrate out of the state during Reconstruction.
During Reconstruction, discriminatory groups were able to control the state
legislature and reverse gains made by African Americans.
Ultimately, the state's Reconstruction government was unable to protect African
Americans from the violence of discriminatory groups.
