The goal of Reconstruction was to rebuild the south, reestablish the union, and rebuild southern society without slavery. However due to prejudice in the south and a lack of care from…

explain that the attack was not performed by the Union. U.S History.org says, “The majority of northern newspapers did, however, denounce the raid.” Even after the north tried to say this wasn’t their plan the south tried to say the attack was by Abraham Lincoln.

Conspiracy theories concerning the assassination of President Abraham Lincoln have been in existence since almost directly after the death of this great political leader. According to author Daniel Cohen, “there were hints, and sometimes shouts, of a wider and more sinister conspiracy.” In some instance, such suspicions seemed no more than murmurs.
