Reconstruction Video
After watching the video on reconstruction it really opened my eyes to how not that long ago it was. Just in 2015, a kid walked into a predominantly black church said a prayer and opened fire in the middle of the church causing harm to nine victims. This issue goes back years to a time period we call reconstruction.
Reconstruction was a time in which we got rid of the old ways and tried to create new ways. In these ways it caused the old whites to be angry with the new way. It caused tension between the old lights and the new lights.
The African American culture was under attack, the old whites were trying to erase everything that has happened. There were many different attempts and different events that have occurred to harm the African American group.
