  Dunning School - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Dunning School is a historiographical school of thought regarding the Reconstruction period of American history (1865–1877).
Dunning's theory of Reconstruction contended that freedmen proved incapable of self-government and had themselves made segregation necessary.
The Dunning School historiography was vigorously criticized for racial discrimination by W.E.B. Du Bois in many articles beginning in 1919 in The Crisis and in his epic work, Black Reconstruction in America.

 Redeemers - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
By the turn of the century, historians, led by the Dunning School, saw Reconstruction as a failure because of its political and financial corruption, its failure to heal the hatreds of the war, and its control by self-serving northern politicians, such as the people around Grant.
This interpretation of events was the hallmark of the Dunning School which dominated most history textbooks from 1900 to the 1960s.
While acknowledghing some corruption in the Reconstruction era, they hold that the Dunning School over-emphasized it while ignoring the worst violations of republican principles--namely the white racism of the Redeemers who denied African Americans their civil rights, including their right to vote [1].
