This book explores and analyzes the problems and challenges that have resulted from the Civil War, Reconstruction, slavery, and segregation in North America. These painful chapters in American history have continued along racial and regional lines and are of particular interest today when the USA are for the first time governed by an African American president. The postscriptum extends the main narrative by focusing on selected writers’ activities and fiction during the Civil War and Reconstruction.

This book views the history of African American slavery and its legacy. The author examines the misuse and abuse of white power in America and focuses on the treatment of African Americans within the last three centuries. Since the author sees slavery as some wider phenomenon, he focuses on the Ku Klux Klan activity aimed against African Americans, the horror of lynching, American penal system, segregation of the races in connection with the Civil Rights Movement; in other words, those activities whose purpose was to still keep men of color in bondage or to re-enslave them.
