Correct, but the main failure of Reconstruction was that the south was beaten ENOUGH into submission & the traitorous Dem party allowed to revive.

Great weakness of Reconstruction was its corruption, and willingness to ignore both white & black “politicians” who were sucking off the public teat. Blame to go around, but still not crushing the Ds is something we’ve paid for for over a century.
