Initial Post Instructions
For the initial post, craft a response comparing the three (3) Reconstruction plans:

• Proclamation of Amnesty and Reconstruction (10% Plan) – Lincoln
• Andrew Johnson’s Reconstruction Plan
• Congressional Reconstruction Plan (Congress)

Then, address one (1) of the following for your selections:

• Analyze if the South should have been treated as a defeated nation or as rebellious states.
• Explain how the American culture and society changed in the North versus the South during Reconstruction.
• Analyze the impact of the Compromise of 1877 that ended Reconstruction on African-Americans.

The differences between the three reconstruction processes include that the Proclamation of Amnesty and Reconstruction (10% Plan) – by Lincoln guided that Southern states would be readmitted into the union, after 10 percent of the voters from the respective states swore an allegiance vote for the union.…..Please click the icon below to access entire solution at $5
