What effect did the sharecropping system have on the South?

History

andre [41]3 years ago

The effect of the sharecropping system on the South brought prosperity back to plantation owners and tenant farmers.

Explanation:

Sharecropping farming was introduced in the South after the Civil War in America in the Reconstruction era.

  • Many newly freed African Americans moved toward peonage, did sharecropping work to pay off debt through labour.
  • Sharecropping is a system where the planter allows a tenant to use the land.
  • Sharecropping was worse as it increased the amount of debt that freed slaves owed to plantation owners.
  • Sharecropping was similar to slavery, sharecroppers owed money to the plantation owners, and they had to give all money they made from cotton.
  • To clear of debt, former slaves, forced to work in the land of plantation owners and tenant farmers, which brought prosperity back.

Therefore we can conclude that the sharecropping system in the South effected former slaves because they were bound to the land to pay off their debt.

Thus option G. "It brought prosperity back to plantation owners and tenant farmers", is the correct answer.

What were the two conflicts with Cuba in the 1960s?
UNO [17]
The two conflicts with cuba in the 1960s were:

When Fidel Castro came to power in 1959, relations between the two countries quickly devolved into bitter arguments, political grandstanding and the occasional international crisis. And while Cuba lies less than 100 miles (160 km) off the coast of Florida, the two nations have had no diplomatic relations since 1961 and use Switzerland as a mediator whenever they need to talk. But maybe — finally — things might change. On April 13 President Barack Obama announced that he would lift some longstanding restrictions, allowing Cuban Americans to visit and send remittances to their families and easing — but not removing — the 47-year-old economic embargo on the island nation. (Read "Will Obama Open Up All U.S. Travel to Cuba?")

But the U.S. and Cuba's ties go back well before Castro. In 1898, at the end of the Spanish-American war, a defeated Spain signed the rights to its territories — including Cuba, Puerto Rico and Guam — over to the U.S., which subsequently granted Cuba its independence with the stipulation that the U.S. could intervene in the country's affairs if necessary (later relinquished) and that it be granted a perpetual lease on its naval base at Guantánamo Bay (not). For the next half-century the two countries more or less cooperated, with the U.S. helping to squash rebellions and heavily investing in the economy of its tiny neighbor. The American mafia used Havana as a conference center in 1946. Ernest Hemingway lived there for 22 years; he wrote The Old Man and the Sea at his villa just outside the capital.
