This article has a list of Black officials in the Reconstruction era:

Finally, two articles to put a set of faces on the gains Black people made during Reconstruction. Frederick Douglass's wife and Harriet Tubman are going to be mentioned in Women's History Month, and there are very specific reasons for noting his wife in particular. First, though, this article notes multiple people who held Federal office in the Reconstruction era. More than one of them were enslaved and legally property and then held Federal office, and state office, with the power to make and influence laws. One, P.B.S. Pinchback, remains the only Black governor of my state to this day.

This was and is rightly held as one of the greatest changes that Reconstruction produced for very good reasons.

A little more to the left

If you think bunching up to fit in the photo is a new thing "Because selfies", you got another thing coming. Of course, you needed someone to look through the camera (with a curtain to shade the viewfinder to be doubly sure) and tell you if everyone fit in the early days, which was good because they also held up the flash: a literal tray on a stick filled with flammable powder. This is a birthday gift for a friend. Character design and background photo belong to him, outfit designed by me. This sketch on: Twitter, Deviant Art, Fur Affinity, Ko-fi, Mastodon

Reconstruction did not fail in one sense, it was overthrown:

In the end Reconstruction failed, not from rule of law, but rule of terrorism and the collapse of will on the part of the white North to enforce rule of law on behalf of Black people, North or South. The conventional war of the great armies ended, the war transformed into a guerrilla war of night riders versus US troops and Black people on behalf of a new world of white supremacy, of sharecroppers who created a pale ghost of slavery, and the one-party rule of the Bourbon Democrats.

Each of the states of the former Confederacy had a version of this process. Tenuously held Republican governments that allowed for Black participation in state and federal legislative representation, in one case as Governor. These systems were carefully held by a coalition of white and Black leaders reinforced with the weight of US occupation forces.

In the end this alliance was based on something too weak to hold, a center that was too fragile, and in the end white Northerners happily sacrificed Black people for their own convenience. In this Great Betrayal of 1877 is why Reconstruction is taught so much less than the War of the Rebellion itself.
