Question

You get this information from the book called Roll of Thunder Hear My Cry-What is the importance of the Logans owning their own land at this time? Why may it be important that Me. Jamison , a white man, sold the land to Grandpa Logan?

Answer 1

Back when African Americans were first freed, owning land was the sure sign to them that they were free. But, many whites did not want to sell them land because they had just been property and they felt that they were too low to own anything.
