What factors contributed to the type of economy that characterized the New South?

History
1 answer:
Marat540 [252]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Henry Grady, an Atlanta editor of the news media, used the New South. The concept of the New South was that after the Civil War, the region needed to develop and diversify its economy.

Explanation:

More investments were being sought in the region for railways, telegraphs, and canals. While this contributed to the economy, after the civil war, the area was still largely agricultural and depleted. The region was not subject to the same level of immigration as the North, and potential workers were devastated during the civil war.

The region also generated more opportunities for public education; the number of children to read and write increased by the turn of the century.

The New South is that, at least on paper, the former slaves had more rights. Although numerous towns passed regulations that made it a crime to leave or travel an Afro American, many former slaves were permitted to be active in these new industries.

Before embarking on the series of court cases that argued for his freedom, Scott’s life was the rootless existence typical of many slaves. Born around 1799 in Virginia, he moved with his owner Peter Blow to Alabama and eventually to St. Louis, where he was sold to U.S. Army Dr. John Emerson in the early 1830s.

Like many antebellum officers, Emerson was transferred from post to post through Western states and territories. During those journeys, Scott married a slave woman named Harriet Robinson in 1836. When Emerson died in 1843, Scott, by then the father of two children, likely hoped the doctor’s will would manumit him—and his family—but it did not. Scott then offered Emerson’s brother-in-law and executor, J.A. Sanford, $300 hoping to buy his own freedom. But the offer was turned down. Scott decided to take the matter to the courts.

By 1846, Scott was living in St. Louis in service to Emerson’s widow. He filed suit with the state of Missouri, claiming that since he had lived with Emerson in Illinois—where slavery was outlawed by the 1787 Northwest Ordinance—and Fort Snelling in Minnesota—where the Missouri Compromise outlawed slavery in 1820—he was entitled to his freedom. In an interesting twist, the children of Peter Blow, Scott’s first owner, provided the slave family financial assistance.
