The three key amendments from the Reconstruction Era are the 13th, 14th, and 15th Amendments. The 13th Amendment abolished slavery and involuntary servitude, except as punishment for a crime. The 14th Amendment granted citizenship to all persons born or naturalized in the United States and ensured equal protection under the law. The 15th Amendment aimed to secure voting rights for African American men by prohibiting the denial of the right to vote based on race, color, or previous condition of servitude.
