Near the end of Reconstruction, "redemption" referred to the period when Southern Democrats regained political control over Southern states, effectively reversing many of the advancements made during Reconstruction. This term often encompassed the efforts to restore white supremacy and dismantle the political and social gains of African Americans. Redemption was characterized by violent reprisals against Black citizens, the establishment of Jim Crow laws, and the disenfranchisement of Black voters, leading to a significant regression in civil rights. Ultimately, it signified a return to pre-Civil War social hierarchies and racial segregation.
