Book Germantown During the Civil War Era

Download or read book Germantown During the Civil War Era written by George C. Browder and published by Univ. of Tennessee Press. This book was released on 2024 with total page 597 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Germantown's Civil War experience mirrored that of many small towns across the South: It ardently supported secession through 1861 only to undergo serious disruption in 1862 as Federal forces and Confederate raiders contested control of the area. Then, during 1863 and early 1864, the Tennessee town felt the mixed benefits of an obdurate Federal occupation as guerrilla warfare continued throughout the countryside surrounding the town. And although it began to recover shortly after the close of the Civil War, Germantown's fortunes changed again as Reconstruction took hold and emerging economic inequality mixed with racist fears of a newly freed slave population. Browder recounts the history of what is now a large suburb of Memphis, how it fared during the Civil War, and how its current demographic makeup began shortly after the close of the war"--

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With emancipation, a long battle for equal citizenship began. Bringing together the histories of religion, race, and the South, Elizabeth L. Jemison shows how southerners, black and white, drew on biblical narratives as the basis for very different political imaginaries during and after Reconstruction. Focusing on everyday Protestants in the Mississippi River Valley, Jemison scours their biblical thinking and religious attitudes toward race. She argues that the evangelical groups that dominated this portion of the South shaped contesting visions of black and white rights. Black evangelicals saw the argument for their identities as Christians and as fully endowed citizens supported by their readings of both the Bible and U.S. law. The Bible, as they saw it, prohibited racial hierarchy, and Amendments 13, 14, and 15 advanced equal rights. Countering this, white evangelicals continued to emphasize a hierarchical paternalistic order that, shorn of earlier justifications for placing whites in charge of blacks, now fell into the defense of an increasingly violent white supremacist social order. They defined aspects of Christian identity so as to suppress black equality—even praying, as Jemison documents, for wisdom in how to deny voting rights to blacks. This religious culture has played into remarkably long-lasting patterns of inequality and segregation.
