The Reconstruction Finance Corporation (RFC), established by Herbert Hoover in 1932, provided loans primarily to banks, railroads, and other large businesses to stabilize the economy during the Great Depression. Additionally, it extended financial support to state and local governments for public works projects and to agricultural organizations. The aim was to stimulate economic activity and restore confidence in the financial system. Ultimately, the RFC's loans were intended to prevent further bank failures and job losses.

Freedmen, Scalawags, And Carpet-Baggers
The rights of newly freed slaves and the southern white population were areas of conflict during Reconstruction. Issues such as voting rights, land ownership, and labor rights were hotly debated between these groups as the nation sought to rebuild and redefine itself after the Civil War.

Southern whites during Reconstruction generally reacted with hostility and suspicion towards the various groups of Northerners, including Carpetbaggers (Northerners who moved South for economic or political opportunities) and Scalawags (Southern whites who supported Reconstruction). Many viewed these groups as opportunists seeking to exploit the South's post-war vulnerabilities. This animosity often manifested in violence, discrimination, and the formation of organizations like the Ku Klux Klan, aimed at undermining Reconstruction efforts and restoring white supremacy. Overall, the presence of Northerners exacerbated tensions and resistance among Southern whites.
