Andrew Johnson was a racist president whos Restoration Plan implemented Black oppression in the South indirectly. His Reconstruction Plan reunified and rebuild Slave owners economically, socially and politically instead of the whole country including African Americans.

Andrew Johnsons reconstruction Plan allowed ex-confederates to hold office. Which clearly means that he allowed white slave owners to take power over African Americans.
