Why did many former slaves enter into sharecropping contracts that were designed to keep them poor?

History

Tatiana [17]3 years ago

Many former salves expected the federal government to give them a certain amount of land as compensation for all the work they had done during the slave era. During Reconstruction, however, the conflict over labor resulted in the sharecropping system, in which black families would rent small plots of land in return for a portion of their crop, to be given to the landowner at the end of each year.

Why was the New England area split with their opinions on the future of slavery?
KatRina [158]

Answer: Politics in some parts of the colonies oscillated, and social movements that opposed slavery emerged.

Explanation:

It is essential to point out at the outset that the slave policy in the South and North was different. The south was entirely dependent on the slave labour, while in the north the slaves were in somewhat better conditions. However, when we talk about the north of More specifically New England, there were some oscillations in the colony. New England freed more and more slaves from year to year, primarily because of the fact that they were involved in the war. The colonial government in Rhode Island, which is an integral part of New England, sought to maintain a somewhat more rigid position on slaves, but all went towards freeing these people. Specific religious-social movements also emerged, which, by invoking moral principles, sought to eliminate slavery.

How the course of events went from being a local conflict to a world war ?
GaryK [48]

Answer:   It helped bring a quick victory to the Allies.

The United States had been providing some support to the Allies prior to its own entry into the war.  But when the US joined the effort fully with a declaration of war, that not only meant the arrival of fresh US troops but a commitment of even more American dollars to the Allies' war effort.  The American commitment greatly boosted the morale of British and French troops on the Western front and demoralized the German troops.

As to other answers I've seen suggested with this question in multiple choice format:

  • Russia did pull out of the war, but that was because it went through a revolution and change of government in its own country, not because of American involvement.  Russia's fight was with Germany on the Eastern front, whereas the US entered the war on the Western front.
  • The United States entered the war on the Western front where the British and French had already been fighting the Germans.
  • There were still additional casualties after the Americans entered the war, but bringing the war to an end sooner cut down on the huge losses of life that had been happening.

Lapatulllka [165]

The correct answer is:

In Galatians 3: 8, for example, a very common text in which Paul the apostle states that every person should be treated equally, because they are "one in Christ."  That very much associates with the idea of the text "I have a dream." No matter if they are rich, poor, white, black person, or  different religion. The dream was to live in an equal society.
