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.

Which was one major reason people moved to the south in the second half of the 20th century?
sasho [114]
People started moving towards the South in the second half of the 20th century mostly for economic reasons. Southern states had cheaper standards of living and you could find a home easier and a job. The expenses were not as high as they were in the northern countries, mostly those in the north eastern part of the US.
