  2. Reminder • During Reconstruction, the twelve-year period of readjustment following the • Civil War, the nation faced problems of rebuilding the South, reuniting the • states, and ensuring the rights and protection of the newly freed African • Americans. • The war left the South in ruins both economically and ideologically. Newly • freed slaves struggled to come to terms with their liberation. White Southern • citizens were forced to face the reality of their plundered land. If Lincoln had • lived to carry out his plan for a charitable and healing reconstruction, the • failures of Reconstruction, with its regional hatreds and the rise of Jim Crow • laws may not have happened.
