The Freedmen's Bureau, more formally known as the Bureau of Refugees, Freedmen and Abandoned lands, was given the responsibility by the federal government of helping former slaves adjust to their new status as "freedmen" after the Civil War. The idea was initiated by President Lincoln in 1865 before his death and passed by Congress. The Freedmen's Bureau provided emergency food, housing and medical aid to the recently freed slaves and, for the longer term, prepared them for self-sufficiency through education, instruction in their new rights including voting, and arranging for jobs, often with previous slave owners, negotiating the employment contracts on behalf of the freedmen, and then keeping an eye on the situation to make sure that the terms of the contract were complied with. In 1871, the Freedmen's Bureau was disbanded, long before its efforts could become fully effective. In response, resentful ex-Confederates rolled back the gains made in politics and education by the freedmen and instituted a series of laws that kept the ex-slaves and their children technically free but relegated many of them to political and economic serfdom.

Due to being understaffed and without substantial funds, The Freedmen's Bureau failed to purchase enough land to fulfill their commitment to the newly freed slaves. The Bureau was more successful with getting Black men registered to vote, establishing schools and serving as legal council.

Not many more rights were given to them. They now had the chance to work for someone and get paid for it. Their main benefits were in the North after reconstruction.

The KKK and other groups intimidated blacks from voting. and many other examples contibuted to Reconstruction's failure. If you want to know more, i have lots more info)(
