    The Untold Truth of the Reconstruction Era: Race, Power, and the Fight for America’s Future

    The Reconstruction Era (1865–1877) was one of the most turbulent and transformative chapters in American history. In this episode of What’s the Context?, hosted by Natami Fulton, we cut through the myths, propaganda, and oversimplified narratives to reveal the unfiltered truth about the years following the Civil War — a time when America stood at a crossroads between racial justice and the resurgence of white supremacy. After the Confederacy’s defeat, the United States faced a monumental challenge: how to rebuild the South, integrate millions of newly freed African Americans into civic life, and redefine the nation’s identity. The promise of freedom, equality, and civil rights was written into law through the 13th, 14th, and 15th Amendments — yet these victories sparked fierce resistance from former slaveholders, racist lawmakers, and violent groups like the Ku Klux Klan. In this episode, we explore: The rise and fall of Radical Reconstruction and why it failed to achieve its full potential The political battles between Republicans, Democrats, and Southern elites over who would control America’s future The role of African American leaders in shaping democracy despite relentless oppression The birth of Jim Crow laws and how they set the stage for over a century of racial inequality The parallels between Reconstruction and modern-day politics, from voter suppression to debates over racial justice Why the South “won” the narrative war despite losing the Civil War itself Natami Fulton brings a sharp, unapologetic perspective, drawing from historical records, political analysis, and lessons from decades of activism and government service. This isn’t just a history lesson — it’s a wake-up call about how unresolved conflicts from the Reconstruction Era still shape America’s political divide today. Whether you’re a history buff, political junkie, or simply someone trying to understand the roots of systemic racism in the U.S., this episode delivers a compelling mix of storytelling, fact-checking, and cultural commentary. We challenge the sanitized textbook versions and ask hard questions about America’s unfinished work in achieving racial justice. 🎙 What’s the Context? is more than a podcast — it’s a space for confronting uncomfortable truths, unpacking complex histories, and understanding the real forces driving political change in America. Join us as we connect the dots from Reconstruction to the present day, exposing the cycles of progress and backlash that continue to define U.S. democracy. 👉 Subscribe now to never miss an episode.

    The Scapegoat Strategy: How American Politics Uses Fear & Division

    In this powerful debut episode of What’s the Context?, host Nantambu Foley pulls back the curtain on one of the oldest — and most dangerous — political tactics in history: SCAPEGOATING. From ancient religious rituals to today’s political headlines, scapegoating has been used to shift blame, manipulate public opinion, and maintain power. Whether it’s immigrants, Black communities, Muslims, journalists, or political opponents — the targets change, but the strategy remains the same. Drawing from personal experience in Congress and grassroots activism, Nantambu dissects how fear and division are weaponized to distract citizens from real issues like systemic inequality, corporate corruption, and government failure. This episode challenges mainstream narratives, encourages critical thinking, and explores why Americans continue to fall for this psychological trap — and how we can break free. 🎙️ Topics Covered: What is scapegoating and where did it begin? Real examples from U.S. history: Jews, Muslims, Latinos, and more How media and politicians craft false villains to distract from real problems The psychology behind why scapegoating works The link between political propaganda, systemic oppression, and national division How you can spot the pattern and resist being manipulated 💥 Whether you're a student of history, a concerned citizen, or a truth-seeker tired of surface-level takes, this episode brings you the unfiltered political analysis you’ve been missing. 📌 Hosted by: Nantambu Foley 🎧 Podcast: What’s the Context?
