Answer:
In the case of the former slaves who became free after slavery was abolished, they were not always treated as such. Sure they were free in the eyes of the law, but many opportunities that a lot of white folk had weren't immediately available to everyone. In theory, being free could mean having more opportunities, but you have to remember just because you're free it doesn't mean you are guaranteed certain rights or opportunities as others are, it just means you have free will and you aren't in shackles. After all being free doesn't mean being fair or equal, and they are definitely not synonymous.

This excerpt explains why the Articles of Confederation needed to be fixed or replaced with a different constitution. The excerpt goes over several different flaws in the Articles of Confederation including:
1) No national courts to solve issues between individuals from different states.
2) No consistency in laws- In other words, states got to interpret the laws whatever way they wanted.
3) No way to enforce court rulings from state to state.
These weaknesses, plus others, resulted in the need for a new constitution. The US Constitution replaces the Articles of Confederation and is still what we follow today.
