Freedom's Unfinished Revolution

by American Social History Project, Eric Foner, Ronald Jackson, A, Joshua Brown

Overview

All to often, the history of the Civil War is taught in isolation, without reference to Reconstruction or its broader historical implications. Such an aproach obscures the most telling consequences of America's greatest conflict and the links between the 1860s and 1870s and our modern world. While the failures of Reconstruction led to generations of racial injustice, its successes paved the way for the eventual emergence of the modern Civil Rights Movement.
