How was life in the south different after the Civil war?

History

More than a million African Americans were refugees, homeless, separated from family during years of slavery. Governments in many places ceased to exist. The new labor arrangements of tenant farming and sharecropping were born out of this necessity. Laborers who had everything they needed to farm (except the land) became tenant farmers. Sharecroppers usually had to plant specific crops required by the landowner. This system of labor lasted in some parts of the south for a century, involving a majority of landless black and white farmers in many parts of the South. Though sharecropping reduced many freedmen back to circumstances very similar to slavery, there were laborers who worked without any wages at all, legally. For many years after the Civil War, Southern states routinely convicted poor African Americans and some whites of vagrancy or other crimes, and then sentenced them to prolonged periods of forced labor. <span>It may come as no surprise that criminal populations multiplied in several states by as much as ten times between 1865 and the turn of the century. Inmates were big business. What kind of crime might lead someone to be sentenced to convict labor? </span>

One of the most significant changes in the South after the war was that they were no longer allowed to have slaves under legal law. However, there still were loopholes to this law (i.e.- Jim Crow Laws).

POR QUÉ ES IMPORTANTE EL 25 DE MAYO DE 1810 COMO FECHA PATRIA PARA NUESTRA SOCIEDAD ARGENTINA?
alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

El 25 de mayo de 1810 es la fecha patria mas importante de la historia de la República Argentina, pues en dicha fecha se conformó el primer gobierno patrio, iniciando la Revolución de Mayo que comenzó el proceso independentista del entonces Virreinato del Río de la Plata, el cual culminó el 9 de julio de 1816 con la independencia de las Provincias Unidas del Río de la Plata, hoy en día Argentina.

En esta fecha, patriotas rioplatenses depusieron al gobierno de la corona española comandado por el Virrey Cisneros, estableciendo una junta de gobierno criolla a cargo de Cornelio Saavedra y dando inicio a la Guerra de Independencia de Argentina.

In what ways do people today behave like the Israelties, how does God provide for them?
zmey [24]
This is actually funny, but black people act like the Israelite today. This is true because in Exodus 32:9, it says,<span>"I have seen these people," the LORD said to Moses, "and they are a stiff-necked people." (I can say that because I'm black, okay?) This is talking about black people because if someone tells us to do something, we do the opposite. For example, if there was a crime scene and it had the yellow CAUTION tape around the scene black people would ignore the tape and step into to crime scene. And when the police tell us to get away from the scene, we have the audacity to tell the police that they're being racist, when we don't want to do something. Hence, stiff necked and rebellious people.
Hope this helps! :)</span>
