The Treatment Of African-Americans From The Reconstruction After The Civil War To Present
[ send me this paper ]
6 pages in length. The political, social and economic conditions after the Civil War defined the goals for Reconstruction. These goals were essentially to rebuild the South's economy on the basis of free labor, readmitting the Southern states within the Union, and integrating the African Americans into the social fabric of American society. When the Reconstruction Period arrived, it looked as though blacks were going to gain even more rights alongside the emancipation that had already taken place; however, it actually proved to represent a time of much disappointment for many. The writer briefly reviews the history of racial plight, including the Reconstruction, Dred Scott, Jim Crow, Black Codes, 13th and 14th Amendments, Plessy v Ferguson and Martin Luther King, Jr. Bibliography lists 9 sources.

[ send me this paper ]

The United States Colored Troops
[ send me this paper ]
This 8 page report discusses the involvement of African-American troops and regiments in the Civil War. The struggle for the right to become a “Colored Yankee Soldier” lasted for two years of the Civil War before President Lincoln knew that the time had finally come to take advantage of the many “colored” soldiers willing but not allowed to fight. Initially, the president and his advisors hesitated as to whether or not it was “safe” to place guns in the hands of black men. Doing so might elevate them to a status white America would be unwilling to abide. In 1863, soon after the signing of the Emancipation Proclamation, Frederick Douglass called out: “Men of Color, to arms!” Approximately 200,000 answered that call. Bibliography lists 4 sources.
