  4. Questions to Consider • To what extent did Reconstruction create a different life for African-Americans in the post-war South? • Many colleges and universities divide U.S. history courses into pre and post Reconstruction. Why do you believe Reconstruction is a “halfway” point for the history of America? • How did Reconstruction impact the women’s suffrage movement? In what ways did the emancipation of African-Americans create and prevent women from obtaining the right to vote?
