This incredible period of American history, when so much of our current miasma could have been prevented by heeding the watchdogs of civil rights and human rights of the time, deserves study, in my opinion, because it could bring us all to face up to some painful facts, and offers us a chance to reimagine and begin to realize America's promises of freedom for all.

I had no idea about Black Wall Street or how many politicians were Black during Reconstruction, nor of the violence in so many cities to keep Black people out of power. This needs to be taught.
Tom Hathorn | Tacoma, WA
Imagine my anger and shame, decades after high school graduation, as I discovered the true history of the Reconstruction Era. What a wasted high school opportunity to learn what is possible when all people have a voice in government. Instead, I believed that Blacks failed in their opportunity, and just weren’t up to the job.
