Answer:

NAACP's aimed to help blacks be "physically free from forced and low-paid labor(peonage), mentally free from ignorance, politically free from disfranchisement, and socially free from insult" After the American Civil War of 1861–1865, peonage developed in the Southern United States. Poor white farmers and formerly enslaved African Americans known as freedmen who could not afford their own land would farm another person's land, exchanging labor for a share of the crops.
