Colonel's Dream
Published in 1905, 'Colonel's Dream' by Charles Waddell Chesnutt explores the challenges of Reconstruction in the post-Civil War South. The novel highlights the struggle against the reestablishment of oppressive social structures and the emergence of new forms of racial subjugation. Chesnutt's work critiques the failures of the Federal Government to uphold justice, ultimately foreshadowing the rise of Jim Crow laws and systemic racism that would disenfranchise African Americans.
