In this course, we examine the tumultuous time that came in the wake of Abraham Lincoln's assassination when the new president Andrew Johnson battled with the Republican majority in Congress for control over Reconstruction policy. Their bitter contest led to the first presidential impeachment in US history, and its course and development reflect on many of the central issues of the day including race, racism, domestic terrorism, the separation of powers and the basic character of our Constitution. This course will be recorded. Students will have access to videos for the duration of the course.
