40 Acres and a mule compromise
The goal of the "40 acres and a mule" promise was to help recently freed slaves get a stable life and a way to provide for themselves, however, it ran in to trouble and never went as planned.
|
the "40 acres and a mule" promise was made throughout the 1860s as a way to help slaves, it was not a direct command that was issued at one point in time.
|
It was supposed to help civil rights during the reconstruction period by allowing former slaves to have land
|
I think that it was designed to help reintegration during the reconstruction period, but ended up not doing that much good. The idea was perfect, but the southern landowners who had their land taken were less than happy and quick to try to reclaim their land.
