The effect that reconstruction had on former slaves was that it gave was the right to own their right to own their own home. It had to be on a white mans land and they had to grow crops and give half of what they grew to the land owner. The reconstruction gave slaves a little more freedom and now they had to be payed in someway for their work. they couldnt be owned. in a way they were better than before the reconstruction because of it there was sharecroping.
