    Opponents of Reconstruction exploited racial prejudices. People of color faced discrimination. Some believed the South needed to fix its own issues without federal interference. The South protested black suffrage and civil rights, hindering Reconstruction efforts. Congress passed the Homestead Act of 1862, attracting settlers to the Great Plains where rainfall supported farming. The transcontinental railroad made the journey west easier and cheaper. After the war, African American soldiers, also known as Buffalo Soldiers, served in the West to protect settlers. African Americans migrated north for jobs in industry and to escape racism. Industrialization brought jobs to cities, causing them to flourish while displacing many farmworkers.
