The Longest Struggle. The History of the NAACP - Reign of Terror, Part 1
Description
The Civil War was followed by a brief period of about 10 years (1867–1877) called Black Reconstruction when the racial camaraderie between Blacks and Whites, in some isolated parts of the South, was so intimate that northern carpetbaggers and abolitionists found it distasteful. This program from Tony Brown's Journal looks at the period right after this, when the Ku Klux Klan and other secret hate groups were born and discusses how they used the tools of terror, murder, and intimidation.
