The document discusses the Reconstruction era in the United States from 1865 to 1877 following the Civil War. There were three main plans for reconstructing the South: Lincoln's plan called for Southern states to form new governments when 10% of voters took a loyalty oath; Johnson's plan was similar but stricter; and the Radical Republicans passed laws overseeing the military reconstruction of the South and protecting the rights of freed slaves. The Reconstruction era brought both successes like rebuilding the South and establishing public schools, but also failures as racial discrimination and violence increased.
This presentation was made to outline the effects of the Civil war. In an attempt to achieve this I felt the need to have a broad scope of topics. I know this conflicts with my outline critiques, but I felt like this would allow for a more effective powerpoint; instead of fewer topics and more fluffed out ideas.
Unit 3, Lecture 1 - The 1920s. Covers the Harding and Coolidge presidencies, as well as the social and economic changes of the decade. Ends before the Crash.

Lincoln’s Ten
Percent Plan
Goal:
• Achieve a complete and unified
Union
• Peaceful nation instead of a fighting
one
Main Ideas:
• All southerners, except high-ranking Confederate
political and military officials, would be pardoned
and regain citizenship when they took an oath to
support the Constitution and the emancipation of
slaves
• When ten percent of the voters in a state took this
oath they could establish a legal government that
would be recognized by the President
9. 9
Johnson’s
Plan
President Andrew Johnson became
President following Abraham
Lincoln’s assassination
Agreed with Lincoln’s Plan, but was
stricter
Main Ideas:
• Pardons would be granted to those taking a
loyalty of oath to uphold the Constitution
• No pardons would be available to high
Confederate officials
• Every slave-state needed to abolish slavery before
being readmitted
• Every slave-state was required to repeal its
secession ordinance before being readmitted.
