What I know about Radical Republicans is that they were part of the Republican party and their beliefs was based on antislavery and pro black rights but they whanted to punish the south for their deeds.also they were grately opposed by Henry Wilson.The Radical Republicans also disagreed with Lincoln's ten percent plan wich allowed all southerners back in to the union by taking a loyalty oath because they believe it granted president Lincoln with more power in congress based on the Union policy. The Radical Rebublicans tryed to pass the Wade Davis Bill that stated no slavery and for the new states that were once Confederate to pay for the war damages. However Lincoln pocket vetoed the bill. The Radicals also help with the impeachment of Andrew Johnson.
Good use of facts and way to bring light to what Radical Republicans represent. The photo pretty much speaks for itself, so no additional paragraph required haha. Thank you for your post, I really enjoyed the reading.

Thanks the cartoon realy helps explain what the radicals did at the time.
DeleteI liked how you included important key concepts in your writing and it was also very clear for me to understand what you were trying to express. A few things that you could tweak would be the grammar and don't forget to capitalize. i would say to add on more to your last sentence and explain why the Radicals helped with the impeachment of President Jackson because there may be readers who do not have any background knowledge about that.I would also suggest that you add on evidence(quotes) supporting your claims. That way it will be easier for you to analyze the journal question you are trying to answer. This helped a lot in refreshing my memory about all these different events.
