History Racail Ideology
PROMPT:
Historians conclude that while Reconstruction ended slavery after the Civil War in 1865, it failed to challenge the ideologies of race that once defended slavery. As a result, racism continued to inform policies in the decades following the Civil War. In a 5-6 page essay (double-spaced; 11-12 pt font), explore the racial legacies of the Reconstruction era. Give 3 separate, well-supported examples of racial legacies, or the way(s) in which racial formations significantly informed the development of American society between 1870-1940.
