Event Description: 

"Recalling Reconstruction: The Ugly Story of a Splendid Failure"
Presented by Derek Maxfield, GCCassociate professor of History
As the end of the Civil War approached, Abraham Lincoln counseled his generals not to gloat in victory to avoid bitterness and animosity. "Let'em up easy," he said. But Lincoln did not live to oversee much of Reconstruction, which took a dark turn. Eric Foner, auther of the most definitive work on Reconstruction, called it a "splendid failure." Join us to find out why.
