Summary
Exploring W.E.B. Du Bois's "Black Reconstruction in America," this episode uncovers the prevailing white supremacist views post-Civil War, revealing how Southern states sought to re-establish slavery under new guises and vehemently opposed Black education and civil rights. It highlights the disturbing reality that many perceived emancipation not as a step towards equality, but as a threat, with even "liberal" elements pushing for deportation and segregation, while "regulators" enforced brutal social control.Episode description
