What was true about african americans elected to government office during reconstruction

They felt pressure to work together even if they disagreed with each other.

Explanation:

The reconstruction was a moment after the American civil war, at that time African Americans, despite the abolition, still had very few civil rights and were underrepresented politically. The first African Americans to hold political office during the time of reconstruction had little political freedom and, as a minority in politics, felt compelled to work together even if they disagreed with each other.

This is because if these African Americans did not work together, it would be more difficult to work for the African American population.
