ABSTRACT:
6 pages.
During the war, Reconstruction began in the state of Tennessee
under strict military rule, following in many ways the same
course as Maryland. Tennessee's Reconstruction began in the
slaveholding areas of the state where Confederate sentiments were
strong. Throughout these rehearsals, emancipated
African-Americans prevailed with a lack of concern for their
fate; although they were freed, they were still denied most basic
rights such as citizenship and voting. This paper looks at both
the positive and negative aspects of Reconstruction.
