I think what you mean to refer to are the "Radical  Republicans" (men like 
Ben Wade and Thaddeus Steven) who are lot more popular  with academic 
historians than they are with the popular ones.

But  "Black Republicans" was a term used by southerners as a blanket 
condemnation  of the entire Republican party, with Abraham Lincoln being the 
"blackest" of  them all.  And I've run across some good things said about him 
here and  there.

In  the history I have never heard any positive commentary on   them.

Usually they made trouble with the committee on  the conduct  of the war.

I have never read about them without them not  being   described in less 
than positive terms.

Have  you?

They don't appear to be lauded in history

;-)    !!!!

I am trying to be light-hearted and erase any impression of   being 
"strident".
