1. When did Abraham Lincoln begin is 'Ten percent plan'?

Explanation

Abraham Lincoln began his 'Ten percent plan' in 1863. This plan was a proposal for the reconstruction of the Confederate states after the American Civil War. It aimed to reintegrate the southern states back into the Union by offering amnesty to those who pledged loyalty to the United States and accepted the abolition of slavery. The plan required at least 10% of the voting population in each state to take an oath of loyalty before they could form a new state government. This plan was seen as a lenient approach towards the Confederate states and was an important step towards the eventual reunification of the United States.

Explanation

During the reconstruction period, various visions were established, including the Emancipationist vision, which focused on granting freedom and equal rights to former slaves, and the Reconciliationist vision, which aimed to heal the divisions between the North and the South. The White supremacist vision, which sought to maintain white dominance and suppress the rights of African Americans, was also established. However, the Freedom vision was not established during the reconstruction. This suggests that the reconstruction period did not prioritize the overall freedom and empowerment of all individuals, particularly African Americans.
