We have been talking about the Civil War and Reconstruction Era. We talked about the divisions and tensions that the U. S. faced before and after the Civil War. In today’s current events we have also heard that the U. S. is very divided. Describe 3 examples of how present day events relate or do not relate to the events that happened during the Reconstruction Era. PLS HELP ME

In 1866 the Radical Republican Congress sought to remove President Andrew Johnson from office. This was part of the power struggle between Johnson who sought highly lenient policies towards the former Confederate states and the Radical Republicans who wanted a harsher version of Reconstruction as well as more forceful protection of the rights of the newly freed southern blacks population. Ultimately the impeachment, which was not popular or supported by the general public, failed by one vote. The Freedmen's Bureau was a government agency that operated during the period of Reconstruction. It was officially titled the Bureau of Refugees, Freedmen and Abandoned Lands and was created by President Lincoln in 1865 with the intention to aid the newly freed population in the south. The Bureau operated as part of the Department of War (now called the Defense Department) and was originally intended to last one year. Its mission however was expanded to include duties such as education and employment of the newly freed population. The Bureau continued to function until 1872 when Congress shut it down.The Radical Republicans were a faction of the Republican party that sought to impose a harsh version of Reconstruction over the former Confederate states following the Civil War. They were also very supportive of establishing and protecting the civil and voting rights of the newly freed Black population of the south. Following Lincoln's assassination and particularly during Andrew Johnson's presidency, the Radical Republicans largely influenced the direction of Reconstruction. The high point of their power was the impeachment of President Johnson which failed by one vote. They splintered as a political movement within the Republican party once Reconstruction ended in 1877.
