During Reconstruction there was great debate over whether the South should be granted amnesty. What are your thoughts? Defend your argument.
Durrring the Reconstruction Abraham Lincoln granted the south amnesty or in other words he forgave them. My thoughts on this were he was trying to bring the United States back together and end the civil war. When this happened 10 percent of the souths population needed an oath of loyalty to the union in order to bring the United Stated back together. The north was very upset that Lincoln did this but he needed to do it to bring the United States back together.
