The text below is from Georgia's Black Codes in the late 1800s:

"All persons wandering or strolling about in idleness, who are able to work, and who have no property to support them . . . shall be deemed and considered vagrants. It shall be lawful for any person to arrest said vagrants, and have them bound over for trial. Upon conviction they shall be fined or imprisoned, or sentenced to work on the public works or roads for no longer than a year."

How did these laws limit the 13th Amendment?

Most former slaves had no skills other than working on the plantations and these laws made it possible for African Americans to keep working on the farms.

Most former slaves were unruly and violent toward their former masters and these laws prevented white citizens from being harmed.

Most former slaves wanted to continue to work for their masters and these laws prevented them from continuing to work in areas in which they were most skilled.

Most former slaves had no employment and these laws made it possible to keep African Americans in a cycle of slavery by imprisoning them for being jobless.



This one i reallllyyy dont understand lol

Answer 6

We no its not A. because after the 13th Amendment, it was a general concept for plantation owners to employ former slaves as share holders, thus giving them somewhere to live and a job. This law had nothing to do with this concept.

Its not B. for obvious reasons :P

Its not C. because, as I stated for A., former slaves were never prohibited from working on plantations as long as they were hired as shareholders.

So its D. [Most former slaves had no employment and these laws made it possible to keep African Americans in a cycle of slavery by imprisoning them for being jobless.] :)
