Reconstruction was a time of contradictions and conflicts, great expectations and widespread violence. As 4 million formerly enslaved African Americans embraced freedom and struggled to strengthen communities and secure new livelihoods and equal rights, white southerners struggled, often violently, to reconcile themselves to a world without slavery in ways consistent with deeply held, white supremacist beliefs.
