The end of the Civil War was a hopeful beginning for African
Americans. Although Lincoln left no definite plan for
reconstruction, many supported one, and eventually passed the
Reconstruction Act of 1867. African Americans were given the right
to vote, and the South was given assistance to rebuild itself. With
Republican support, African Americans began to gain power socially
and politically. However, discrimination persisted, and African
Americans struggled to find a place in American society. When the
nation fell into economic depression, interest in the
Reconstruction decreased, thus leaving African Americans alone to
face segregation and violence and to doubt the resiliency of their
hard-won freedom. From the new set ""Slavery in the Americas"",
""African Americans during Reconstruction"" explores this
intriguing time in American history more thoroughly. Topics
include: Lincoln and Reconstruction; the beginning of
Reconstruction; the New Reconstruction Plan; the new
African-American role in politics; African-American life under
Radical Reconstruction; the end of Reconstruction; and the legacy
of Reconstruction.
