UCSD! I'm trying to find this right now. Looks like it centers on an article from the magazine Ebony. The mystic years are between 1867 and 1877. Intoxicated by the emotional bang of the war, taunted by the arrogance of the conquered South, and spurred by the economic and political interests, the north took in these years gigantic strides for soul America. Enfranchising blacks, creating a war on poverty (The Freedmen's Bureau), and passing civil rights laws-- some stronger than those coming in the 1960s and 70s.
