AP US History
Unit 4 – American Expansion, 1800–1848
Topic 4.12
If President Lincoln hadn't been assassinated, how might this impact Reconstruction efforts post-Civil War?
Racial segregation would certainly end immediately after the war ended.
Civil Rights Act might not be enacted until much later.
Reconstruction may have proceeded more swiftly & smoothly due to Lincoln's leadership style & approach to reintegration of Southern states back into Union without animosity or revengeful intent towards South for Civil War activities as compared to his successors' punitive methods causing backlash worsening race relations & hindering progress significantly..
Slavery might have been abolished sooner.
