History

Palala Press

Excerpt from The Influence of Reconstruction, on Education in the South The period of the Presidential Plan of Reconstruction, from 1865 to 1867, marks an attempt to enlist the cooperation of the native white citizens in restorin civil order in the South. Under the Congressional Plan, howm7 6, three classes instead of one, as in the Presidential Plan, participated in political affairs: the native whites, the negro freedmen, and men from the North. The native whites were sharply divided into conservatives and radicals or scalawags; the negroes were the most homogeneous, usually of the same mind and easily inﬂuenced; while the men from the North, commonly known as carpetbaggers, were, from the standpoint of the South, pre dominantly radical. The Reconstruction conventions and the legislative bodies from 1868 to 1876 were composed largely of negroes, carpetbaggers and scalawags, and the conservatives were in most cases in the minority.
