I think is going to be a shit show.

The story that folk are going to tell is going to be a story that demands that people that look like me, that we are put in our place, that we play minor bit parts in the history of the country.

And I wanted to write a book that would answer back, that would speak back.

Yeah, I mean, you know, you got over 600,000 people have been killed on land and sea as a result of the carnage of the Civil War.

You get radical reconstruction after the assassination of Abraham Lincoln and Andrew Johnson just wants to bring the South in without any consequence.

Congress takes over.

You get radical reconstruction between 1866 and 1876.

And what you see is this kind of big, this pushback.

in interesting sorts of ways.

And the pushback has taken place in the South, even as your Union soldiers are occupying the South in ways.

But you see Democrats, and we gotta be clear, this is not the same Democratic Party of today, but you see Democrats in so many ways organizing through violence,

as well as coercion, as well as law, trying to seize power in southern states.

You get Colfax in Louisiana.

You get Vicksburg in Mississippi.

Violent overthrows.

The Mississippi Plan lays out a blueprint of how the South will return to power, how southern plantation owners would.

So 1876 is the first time we're going to tell a story about the nation in the aftermath of the war that almost destroyed the nation.

And this is also during the period of the Gilded Age.

And so what they're gonna do is they're gonna engage in this massive act of forgetting.

Frederick Douglass calls these folk the apostles of forgetfulness.
