What were the results of Reconstruction?

In 1870 President Hays made a deal to remove federal troops from the southern states. This changed reconstruction and allowed the south to begin the Jim Crow laws that would create segregation and discrimination for another 100 years. Had reconstruction been allowed to continue the southern states may have not developed as they did, but we will never know.


How did Lincoln and the Radical Republicans differ in their views on the legal status of the seceded states?

Lincoln believed that once a state always a state, which meant they had no power to secede. He was very forgiving to the CSA (Confederate States of America/southern states) after the war, and allowed them back into the union & begin reconstruction if 10% of the southern states who seceded's population swore allegiance to the Union. The Radicals believed that the Southern states had committed suicide and destroyed their own states. They thought Lincoln was being too lenient, and called for 50% or more to swear allegiance before reconstruction would begin. Lincoln vetoed the bill.
