Scalawags were Southern whites who supported Reconstruction and the Republican Party after the Civil War. They played a crucial role in helping to implement Reconstruction policies, often advocating for civil rights and the integration of formerly enslaved people into society. Viewed as traitors by many in the South, scalawags often faced hostility and violence, but their involvement was essential in rebuilding the region and promoting political and social changes during that tumultuous period.
