The Facts of Reconstruction

Lynch, John R.

History

Blurb

The Reconstruction era was the period from 1863 to 1877 in American history. It was a significant chapter in the history of American civil rights. The term has two applications: the first applies to the complete history of the entire country from 1865 to 1877 following the American Civil War; the second, to the attempted transformation of the 11 ex-Confederate states from 1863 to 1877, as directed by Congress. Reconstruction ended the remnants of Confederate secession and ended slavery, making the newly-free slaves citizens with civil rights ostensibly guaranteed by three new Constitutional amendments. Three visions of Civil War memory appeared during Reconstruction: the reconciliationist vision, which was rooted in coping with the death and devastation the war had brought; the white supremacist vision, which included segregation and the preservation of the traditional cultural standards of the South; and the emancipationist vision, which sought full freedom, citizenship, and Constitutional equality for African Americans.

John Roy Lynch (1847-1939) was the first African American Speaker of the House in Mississippi. He was also one of the first African American members of the U. S House of Representatives during the Reconstruction, the period in United States history after the Civil War. Lynch was born a slave in Louisiana, but according to historian Eric Foner, Lynch was freed by the United States Union Army in 1863 near the end of the Civil War. During the Spanish-American War of 1898, he was appointed Treasury Auditor and then Paymaster. Lynch retired from the Army in 1911 and to Chicago, where he practiced law and once again became involved in real estate. After his death in Chicago he was buried with military honors in the Arlington National Cemetery. According to Foner, Lynch "published a book, The Facts of Reconstruction (1913), and several articles criticizing the then dominant Dunning School historiography" which presented the views of former slave owners and routinely showed the role of African Americans during Reconstruction in a false light. His book is a Primary Source in the study of Reconstruction.

Overcoming Masculine Depression

In Overcoming Masculine Depression, psychologists John Lynch and Christopher Kilmartin present a model that provides new ways of understanding men’s behaviors. This unique book does not portray men as victims, but seeks to increase awareness that a great deal of depression in men is misunderstood and quite often misdiagnosed. Many men "act out" their symptoms through anger, workaholism, and relationship conflict. Underlying these behaviors are chronic feelings of being hopeless, helpless, and worthless. Men can learn to recognize symptoms of masculine depression and take steps to reclaim their lives and relationships, and the authors offer many strategies for doing so. Numerous case examples are provided to illustrate the various dynamics of male depression. New to this edition are chapters on self-regulation and impulse control and the application of evidence-based treatment for depression to the symptoms of male depression. This is an essential resource for all helping professionals who work with male clients, as well as for men experiencing symptoms of depression and the people in their lives.
