For studies of advertisements and Civil War memory, see Kenneth Goings, Mammy and Uncle Mose: Black Collectibles and American Stereotyping (Bloomington: Indiana University Press, 1994); Karen Cox, Dreaming of Dixie: How the South was Created in American Popular Culture (Chapel Hill: University of North Carolina Press, 2011); Robert J. Cook, Troubled Commemoration: The American Civil War Centennial, 1961–1965 (Baton Rouge: Louisiana State University Press, 2007); and Amanda Bellows, American Slavery and Russian Serfdom in the Post-Emancipation Imagination (Chapel Hill: University of North Carolina Press, 2020). In Remembering the Civil War: Reunion and the Limits of Reconciliation (Chapel Hill: University of North Carolina Press, 2013), Caroline E. Janney argues that race played a role in reconciliation, but was not the driving force of the phenomenon (199–200). By contrast, David Blight posits in Race and Reunion: The Civil War in American Memory (Cambridge, Mass.: Belknap Press of Harvard University, 2001) that reunion was made possible through racial oppression (139).
