From its inception, the United States struggled to reconcile the idea of freedom with African American slavery. While it seemed as if the Civil War would resolve this dilemma, the end of slavery did not bring the equal rights imagined by African Americans and their allies. It instead led to a battle for even the most basic political and human rights which continued for over a century.
