Why do you think that southern whites resisted reconstruction from the federal government?
Southern whites resisted Reconstruction from the federal government primarily due to a desire to maintain their social, political, and economic dominance following the Civil War. Many feared that federal policies aimed at promoting civil rights and integrating formerly enslaved people would undermine their way of life and threaten their power. Additionally, the resentment towards Northern intervention, perceived as an infringement on states' rights, fueled their resistance. This backlash manifested in the rise of white supremacist groups and the implementation of discriminatory laws to re-establish control over the social order.
