The theme of Reconstruction, I’m gathering, is that even abolitionists did not think of Black people as fully human, and how quickly Republicans turned toward trying to win Democrat votes rather than holding them accountable for their ONGOING treason after the Civil War (and their history of HUMAN RIGHTS ABUSES). Confiscation of their land was *the least* we could/ought to have done. 🤬

Truthfully, I was preparing to start another book alongside this one, preferably fiction, because I’ve found this dry and (unsurprisingly) VERY depressing. However, in this last stretch, I began to be able to engage more with the “political” aspect—probably because the moral stance of Radical Republicans was being discussed. It feels easier to read/take now, so I don’t think I need a second book after all.
