For family reasons, I've been doing a lot of reading on the Redeemer violence that killed Reconstruction in Mississippi. Now I'm reading this book on Mardi Gras in NOLA, except it's very much contextualized, and we're at the Reconstruction era.

I'm convinced US History lies about Reconstruction because it 100% puts the lie to "we've always had peaceful transfer of power." Duly elected officials were overthrown in violent insurrection with mob killings. We just pretend it didn't happen..
