A Splendid Failure – In Part 2 of a conversation with historian Steven Nash, we delve into the rise of the KKK and how politics was realigned in Western North Carolina during Reconstruction, which W.E.B. DuBois called “a splendid failure.” Dr. Nash’s new book is Reconstruction’s Ragged Edge: The Politics of Postwar Life in the Southern Mountains.
