This article examines the ways in which some African-Americans assigned great importance to Haiti from 1863 to 1877. At the outset of Reconstruction, a diverse cast of African-Americans derived inspiration from contemporary and historical signs of Haitian progress. But by the end of the era, middle-class and elite African-Americans, particularly urban northerners, demanded the reform of Haitian life and culture. This shift illustrates not only growing class politics within black communities but also African-Americans' varied attempts to understand and influence the immense transformations in US public life that occurred after emancipation
