6.9 Points to Remember
The Reconstruction was a period of rebuilding the
war torn U.S. especially, the Southern states that were absolutely
devastated by the Civil War. This period saw several welfare programs
for free Negroes through the Freedman bureaus. At the same
time this period saw the rise of organizations like the Ku Klux
Klan which were racist and spread terror in predominantly black
areas.
