Anyone can help me on US History about RECONSTRUCTION please? I am studying US History and am trying to summarize at least 3 points why Reconstruction was a failure. I know a little bit of the economical reason and how the black was still discriminated in the view that they were prevented from voting... But anyway, what I've learned I couldn't remember much and they are not organized in my mind. I am going to write an essay so I really appreciate it if anyone can help me with the 3 theses to make or even the important evidences of them, such like how the sharecropping system could not work, how 40 acres and a mule didn't work, how they were still discriminated... Thank you very much for any help!
