Reconstruction Was it a success or failure? Era between 1865 to 1877, involving “bringing” the states back into the Union and changing institutions.

What is President Lincoln’s Principle Objective for War? Letter to Horace Greeley of “New York Tribune” on Aug. 22, 1862: Lincoln states, “My paramount object in this struggle is to save the Union, and is not either to save or to destroy slavery. If I could save the Union without freeing any slave I would do it, and if I could save it by freeing all slaves I would do it; and if I could save it by freeing some and leaving others alone I would also do that.”

Dwight Eisenhower “I think the civil rights program is eminently reasonable and moderate. I don’t believe you can change the hearts of men with laws or decisions or anything else.” - The President's News Conference June 26, 1957 1953-1961

“Prairie Edge Replaces Controversial Statue,” March 19, 2008 (3) What do we do about these Confederate monuments? “Prairie Edge Replaces Controversial Statue,” March 19, 2008

Story of Maceo Snipes “In the state of Georgia, in 1946, a young African American veteran named Maceo Snipes learned the Supreme Court had ruled he had a right to vote. No African American had voted in his county since Reconstruction, but Maceo Snipes went down and registered. The following morning he was sitting on his porch and a white man came up to him and killed him with a shotgun. His funeral was held the next day, and in the midst of the funeral, Maceo’s mother rose and moved up through the crowd, up to his coffin, where they waited to lower it into the earth. And she asked her second son to come forth. He was 17. And she said to him, ‘Put your hand on this coffin, and swear on the body of your brother than when you get to be 21, you’re going down to the courthouse to do what he did — to vote.’ ”
