Abraham Lincoln initially approached slavery with a focus on preserving the Union, advocating for gradual emancipation and compensation for slave owners. His post-Civil War reconstruction plan aimed for a lenient reintegration of Southern states. In contrast, Andrew Johnson, who succeeded Lincoln, adopted a more lenient stance toward the South but was less committed to protecting the rights of freed slaves, often opposing civil rights legislation and allowing Southern states to implement restrictive Black Codes. This divergence contributed to tensions between Johnson and Congress, ultimately leading to his impeachment.
