This class will analyze U.S. History, primarily from the African American perspective, beginning in 1803 with the Louisiana Purchase, The Haitian Revolution, The Missouri Compromise of 1820, Special Field Order #15 (aka '40 Acres and a Mule)', the end of the Civil War and the 13th Amendment through 1968. We'll look at The Reconstruction Era (1865-1877), The Red Summer of 1919, The Jim Crow Era, World War I, The Great Migration, World War II, The Civil Rights Movement and the Black Power Movement to get a better understanding of how we got to where we are now and where do we go from here. Unfortunately, some of this history is repeating itself.

In the aftermath of the insurrection a year ago at the U.S. Capitol, many leading historians drew parallels between the violence and the Reconstruction era, the period of political revolution directly following the American Civil War.

“The events we saw reminded me very much of the Reconstruction era and the overthrow of Reconstruction, which was often accompanied, or accomplished, I should say, by violent assaults on elected officials,” Eric Foner, Pulitzer Prize-winning historian and author of Reconstruction: America’s Unfinished Revolution, 1863-1877, said in an interview with the New Yorker published a week later.

Scholars say studying the aftermath of the Civil War can help put in context many of the most seminal events in the U.S. in recent years, from the brutal murder of George Floyd by police in 2020 to the voter suppression laws enacted after Black voters played a big role in helping Joe Biden and Kamala Harris be elected President and Vice President in 2020. But despite the timeliness of the era in today’s climate, many students in American schools will not get a full education on Reconstruction until they get to college.
