Labor Struggles in the Reconstruction Era. In the early years of Reconstruction, most blacks in rural areas of the South were left without land and forced to work as laborers on large white-owned farms and plantations in order to earn a living. Republican victory in the Congressional elections of 1866 led to the passage of the Reconstruction Acts in 1867, beginning a new phase of Reconstruction. During this period, the passage of the 14th and 15th amendments granted African Americans the right to vote, equality before the law and other rights of citizenship.
