The North's neglect of Reconstruction stemmed from waning political will and increasing focus on economic issues following the Civil War. As the nation shifted attention toward industrial growth and labor disputes, the urgency for addressing the South's social and political integration diminished. Additionally, the rise of white supremacist groups and increasing violence in the South contributed to Northern apathy, as many felt Reconstruction efforts were futile. By the 1870s, the North's commitment weakened significantly, leading to the eventual withdrawal of federal support for Reconstruction policies.
