  • William Gannaway "Parson" Brownlow (August 29, 1805 – April 29, 1877) was an American newspaper publisher, Methodist minister, book author, prisoner of war, lecturer, and politician who served as the 17th Governor of Tennessee from 1865 to 1869 and as a United States Senator from Tennessee from 1869 to 1875. Brownlow rose to prominence in the late 1830s and early 1840s as editor of the Whig, a polemical newspaper in East Tennessee that promoted Whig Party ideals and opposed secession in the years leading up to the American Civil War. Brownlow's uncompromising and radical viewpoints made him one of the most divisive figures in Tennessee political history and one of the most controversial Reconstruction Era politicians of the United States. Beginning his career as a Methodist circuit rider in the 1820s, Brownlow was both censured and praised by his superiors for his vicious verbal debates with rival missionaries of other sectarian Christian beliefs. Later, as a newspaper publisher and editor, he was notorious for his relentless personal attacks against his religious and political opponents, sometimes to the point of being physically assaulted. At the same time, William was successfully building a large base of fiercely loyal subscribers. Brownlow returned to Tennessee in 1863 and in 1865 became the war governor with the U.S. Army behind him. He joined the Radical Republicans and spent much of his term opposing the policies of his longtime political foe Andrew Johnson. His gubernatorial policies, which were both autocratic and progressive, helped Tennessee become the first former Confederate state to be readmitted to the Union in 1866, "exempting it from the lengthy federal military reconstruction inflicted on most of the South". Brownlow utilized the Tennessee state government to enfranchise African-American former male slaves with the right to vote and to qualify as candidates for public offices in Tennessee elections soon after the Civil War. Soon after, ex-Confederate political leaders and military officers using the Ku Klux Klan and likeminded vigilante groups, worked to disenfranchise African-Americans. (en)
  • William Gannaway "Parson" Brownlow (29 de agosto de 1805 – 29 de abril de 1877) foi editor de jornal e político americanno. O 17º governador do Tennessee com mandato de 1865 até 1869, foi também Senador dos Estados Unidos pelo estado do Tennessee com mandato de 1869 até 1875. Tornou-se destaque na década de 1840 como editor do jornal Whig, um jornal polêmico que promovia os ideais do Partido Whig (Estados Unidos) e se opôs à secessão nos anos que antecederam a Guerra Civil. Os pontos de vista de Brownlow, eram intransigentes e radicais e suas implacáveis investidas contra seus adversários fez dele uma das personalidades mais divisionistas na história política de Tennessee e um dos políticos mais controversos da era de reconstrução do Sul. Brownlow vangloriava-se de que ele "nunca foi neutro" sobre qualquer assunto. Começando sua carreira como Circuit rider Metodista (percorria regiões distantes evangelizando) na década de 1820, Brownlow tanto foi censurado ou elogiado por seus superiores pelos seus ferozes ataques verbais contra rivais missionários de outras religiões. Como um editor de jornal, ele se tornou notório por seus ataques pessoais implacáveis contra seus adversários políticos e religiosos, às vezes ao ponto de ser agredido fisicamente, enquanto ao mesmo tempo construindo uma grande base de assinantes extremamentes leais. Como resultado de sua persistente oposição à secessão após o início da Guerra Civil, ele foi preso em dezembro de 1861 e posteriormente foi forçado a exilar-se no norte. Como governador, ele adotou a postura dos republicanos radicais e passou grande parte de seu mandato, opondo-se as políticas de seu antigo inimigo político Andrew Johnson. Suas políticas estaduais, que têm sido descritas como autocráticas e progressistas, ajudaram o Tennessee tornar-se o primeiro Estado Confederado a ser readmitido à União após a guerra. A política de Brownlow abandonando ex-confederados e reconhecendo ex-escravos levou ao surgimento da Ku Klux Klan no final da década de 1860. (pt)
