The Reconstruction Era in the South had a different meaning than the Republican view, as the Republican Party created most of the reconstruction laws and policies. Their idea was to reform the old Confederacy and have it blend in, at whatever the cost with the rest of the Union. The Southern view saw reconstruction from a different point of view. To the "Old South", reconstruction meant that former slaves and other minorities would have equal rights with ones held by white people. This for them was not correct as they believed that Blacks were not equal to Whites. The idea of having Freed slaves take part in the governments of the southern states, allow them to vote and own farms was against the southern point of view.
