Answer:

E) Felix Haywood.

Explanation:

Felix Haywood was a former slave who was born into the system and worked numerous jobs as a slave. He was employed under the landowner William Gudlow in San Antonio, Texas.

In his interview taken in Texas in 1937, he stated <em>"We knowed freedom was on us, but we didn’t know  what was to come with it. We thought we was goin’ to git  rich like the white folks. We thought we was goin’ to be  richer than the white folks, ’cause we was stronger and  knowed how to work, and the whites didn’t and they  didn’t have us to work for them anymore. But it didn’t  turn out that way. We soon found out that freedom could  make folks proud but it didn’t make them rich."</em> This quote was also mentioned in the book America Firsthand, which tells the story of Americans who helped shape the nation.
