south and it describe the different political offices black men filled during Reconstruction.

Explanation:

The reconstruction era witnessed the rise of the political participation of African Americans. Not only the voting rights but the offices of political parties were taken by African Americans. However, it should be noted here that they did not get the representation in accordance with their proportion. It was still a big achievement for them as before the period of Reconstruction they were virtually no sign of African American holding a political office.
