2 mar 1877 ano - Compromise of 1877
Descrição:
At a meeting in February 1877, Democratic leaders accepted Hayes’s election in exchange for Republican promises to withdraw federal troops from the South, provide federal funding for internal improvements in the South, and name a prominent southerner to the president’s Cabinet. When the federal troops were withdrawn, the Republican governments in Florida, Louisiana, and South Carolina collapsed, bringing Reconstruction to a formal end. Under the Compromise of 1877, the national government could no longer intervene in state affairs. This permitted the imposition of racial segregation and the disfranchisement of black voters.
