Why did Andrew Johnson dismiss Stanton?

After the Civil War, the former Confederate states were divided into military districts under the First Reconstruction Act of 1867. Secretary of War Edwin Stanton, naturally, chose the generals in charge of the various districts and was in a crucial position for how to carry out Reconstruction policies. Because Stanton and President Andrew Johnson had differing views on how to carry out the Reconstruction Act(s)--Stanton approving the Congressional means of restoring the nation, while Johnson followed his own route--some personal and professional animosity developed between the two. Furthermore, Johnson sought to establish himself and the office of executive as supreme over the legislature after their many quarrels over Reconstruction. Johnson decided to defy the Tenure of Office Act, which required the Senate's approval to remove government officials including the president's cabinet--an act which limited the president's power by Congress. Ultimately it was Stanton who, because of his differences in political opinion, his position as Secretary for the Department of War, and as a means by which Johnson could assert his authority, was fired in 1867. An act which would lead to the United States' first ever presidential impeachment.

How did the presidential and congressional battle for control of Reconstruction in the South affect newly freed blacks?

President Johnson was a (southern) democrat while Congress was Republican. The difference in views got in the way, and there were many disagreements. Johnson vetoed a lot of bills (that congress wanted to pass) which would have helped the African Americans gain rights and freedom. Johnson was not for reconstruction and he didn't want to free the slaves. This is one reason why Johnson was impeached-because congress strongly disliked him.
