Reconstruct That!

from History Matters · host Natalye Harpin

Reconstruction only lasted 12 years (1865-1877), and in this podcast we analyze why that was. Hint: freedom is not the same as liberty. Black Codes not only limited the liberties and freedoms of Black citizens, but also White citizens. But, you know, they didn't realize that so what else is new?  Link to Mississippi Black Codes (via MIT): http://web.mit.edu/21h.102/www/Primary%20source%20collections/Reconstruction/Black%20codes.htm
