Product Description:
Despite common belief the Civil War does not end in 1865 and the blood of many Americans mostly blacks continues to flow freely. It is a period known as "Reconstruction" a time many consider to be the darkest in American History. America is supposed to be reuniting healing its wounds and moving past civil discord. But by examining what is really going on in the post-Civil War South one can see snapshots of a larger more menacing picture a picture shadowed by murder terrorism and chaos as "free" black men and women remain enslaved by a South that does not completely surrender. Insurgencies led by disgruntled ex-Confederate soldiers rip through nearly every southern state. America's first terrorist group the Ku Klux Klan is formed in Tennessee and uses scare tactics and murder to keep blacks down.Run Time: 90 minutesFormat: DVD MOVIE Genre: DOCUMENTARIES/MISC.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - History Buff's Side
Being a History Buff of the Civil War period, naturally Reconstruction also has it's appeal to me. I never learned much about either in school. All I was taught, there was a war, these were the sides, this is who did what, the US wins the end. Then Reconstruction was always giving you the impression of great change. Actually both were horrors in themselves. Which was worse? Can you honestly answer that question?

This was the first real insight I had into Reconstruction. I would ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Real History
It has only been in more recent years that American schools have dared to teach the real history of this country, which to a great extent has been neither Christian or democratic. I highly recommend this documentary for an accurate portrayal of the continuation of the civil war which continued to resonate for over a century, and whose remnants continue to tarnish American society.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Reconstruction reconsidered
This DVD from the history channel is well done. It highlights some of the outstanding events of reconstruction after the Civil War including the founding of the KKK. It makes the point grahphically that while the North won the Civil War, the South won the period of Reconstruction. It is essential to understand this period of time in order to understand subsequent American History.



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Beyond the Civil War
I was dispappointed with this video because I thought it was a story not a documentary.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - H.S. History Teacher on Aftershock
With societies, as with individuals, it is often much easier for us to examine the mistakes of others than it is to take an honest look at our own. In both cases, however, honest examination is essential to making genuine progress. Aftershock succeeds in providing us with details on a topic of which most Gone-With-the-Wind-watching Americans are unaware: the atrocious violence and frequent chaos that followed Lee's surrender.

Anyone who has actually studied slavery and the slave trade as ... Read More
