During Reconstruction, former abolitionists in the North had a
golden opportunity to pursue true racial justice and permanent
reform in America. But after the sacrifice made by thousands of
Union soldiers to arrive at this juncture, the moment soon slipped
away, leaving many whites throughout the North and South more
racist than before. Edward J. Blum takes a fresh look at the
reasons for this failure in Reforging the White Republic, focusing
on the vital role that religion played in reunifying northern and
southern whites into a racially segregated society. A blend of
history and social science, Reforging the White Republic offers a
surprising perspective on the forces of religion as well as
nationalism and imperialism at a critical point in American
history.
