What is Understanding Black Codes in 1865 about?
The document discusses black codes that were created by Confederates in 1865 after the Civil War to restrict the rights and freedoms of black Americans. The black codes prohibited blacks from owning guns, restricted their travel and speech by requiring labor contracts, and forced them to work in a wage and debt-based labor economy or face forced labor without pay if they were caught without a job. The document claims life became easier after these restrictive black codes were passed.
