dc.description.abstractThis study examines the cooperative relationship between black and white post Reconstruction Republican leaders in order to understand what effect it had on the trajectory of black political participation in Baltimore between 1865 and 1908. Specifically, this study interrogates the nature of the relationship between black and white Republican leaders in Baltimore following the end of the Civil War; traces the nature of this relationship change over time; and details the impact of these changes on black political participation in Baltimore City. The cooperation rather than the dissension amongst these leaders is what guided the trajectory of black political participation in the form of political appointments, protest actions, electoral politics, the expansion of black education opportunities, and enhanced security in the right to vote. This study reveals and details the different types of collaborative relationships between these two groups and asserts that African Americans in late nineteenth century Baltimore City ultimately benefited from this relationship that resulted in efforts meant to expand black political power and protect their rights.
