Piggybacking on what you said this was known as the Compromise of 1877. The presidential election of 1876 was highly contested between Rutherford B. Hayes and Samuel Tilden. The losing party agreed not to contest Hayes as the victor in the presidential election if he agreed to withdraw federal troops from the South. The compromise is also known as the Great Betrayal.
T.S.B.
you forgot to mention convict leasing which lasted until the 40's.

It isn't innocent or no big deal and the fact that it was prominently featured in Smokey, Dukes of Hazard and a kids toy line says a lot about how this country never really came to grips with the past and the ensuing repercussions.
Exactly, most people can't handle (not accept,) the reality of what really went on those plantations and continued well into 20th century. If a deep dive was done people would realize that the men who settled and founded the nation were on some sadistically barbaric and sexually depraved shit, anyway here's a T.F. Bazooka review.
