Efford, Alison Clark (Marquette University, Wisconsin)
Alison Clark Efford's study reframes Civil War-era history, arguing that the commitment of German Americans to African-American rights pivoted dramatically in 1870 in response to the Franco-Prussian War. This influential group re-evaluated the liberal nationalism underpinning African-American suffrage, influencing other white Northerners and shaping citizenship law.
