The Black Codes were state laws passed in the South post - Civil War. Their main aim was to restrict the rights of newly freed African Americans. They were not about "grandfathering" out of slavery (a concept related to voting restrictions later), did not ban anti - African American organizations like the KKK, and were not part of a federal plan to assist African Americans but rather a Southern attempt to maintain a system similar to slavery in many ways.
