À propos de cet audio
The United States endured a bitter civil war and embarked on the complex process of Reconstruction, aiming to eliminate slavery and secure civil rights for African Americans in the South. Despite the ratification of constitutional amendments guaranteeing these rights, their full realization would not come for another century.
Johnson, who assumed the presidency only after Lincoln's assassination, bears significant responsibility for this delay. His actions enabled the growth of Jim Crow laws and entrenched racial inequality throughout the South in Reconstruction's aftermath.
In this book, I present an alternative historical narrative: What if Lincoln had survived Booth's assassination attempt? How different would our nation look today? In essence, what if Reconstruction itself had been reconstructed?
