Post- Civil War  Issues in America: * 4.5 mill newly freed blacks * Un-educated * No money * Without Property * Limited Opportunities * Southern economy destroyed * Railways, farms, industry lie in ruin

Key Questions 1. How do we bring the South back into the Union? 2. How do we rebuild the South after its destruction during the war? 3. How do we integrate and protect newly- emancipated black freedmen? 4. What branch of government should control the process of Reconstruction?

President Lincoln’s Plan  10% Plan * Wanted peaceful and lenient policy (forgiveness) * People rebelled not states- he can pardon people. * Would pardon anyone who declared oath to Union * When 10% of the voting population in the 1860 election had taken an Oath of Allegiance and established a government, it would be recognized. * He didn’t consult Congress regarding Reconstruction.

Republican Opposition  Radical Republicans * Thought the South should be punished * Blacks should have full citizenship * Led by Charles Sumner & Thaddeus Stevens

Wade-Davis Bill (1864)  Required 50% of the number of 1860 voters to take an “iron clad” oath of allegiance.  Required a state constitutional convention before the election of state officials.  Enacted specific safeguards of freedmen’s liberties.  Basically- CONGRESS controls reconstruction Senator Benjamin Wade (R-OH) Congressman Henry W. Davis (R-MD)

Jeff Davis Under Arrest

Freedmen’s Bureau (1865)  Gave clothing and food to former slaves and poor southern whites.  Set up hospitals, schools, industry, etc.  Northern Abolitionists traveled south  Called “carpetbaggers” by white southern Democrats.

Freedmen’s Bureau Seen Through Southern Eyes Plenty to eat and nothing to do.
