The Civil Rights Act of 1866
The Freedmen's Bureau, established in 1865, was successful in providing essential assistance to formerly enslaved individuals and impoverished white citizens in the South after the Civil War. It helped establish schools, which educated thousands of African Americans, and provided food, medical care, and employment assistance. Additionally, the Bureau played a crucial role in facilitating the transition to freedom by advocating for civil rights and helping to negotiate labor contracts. Despite facing significant challenges and opposition, the Bureau laid the groundwork for future civil rights advancements.
After the Civil War, the slaves were freed. However, many were subjected to tremendous intimidation. Most had no place to live except the old slave cabins. They had no clothes to wear. They had little money. The former masters needed cheap labor and they had desperate people on their hands. In this situation, the Federal Government created the Freedmen's Bureau.
The Freedmen's bureau was the bureau that was helped to feed millions of freed slaves and whites after the Civil War. The Freedmen's bureau was established on March 3, 1865.
The Freedmen's Bureau provided food, housing and medical aid, established schools and offered legal assistance. It also attempted to settle former slaves on land confiscated or abandoned during the war.
This was designed to protect the interest of former slaves. Includes helping them find new employment and improve educational and health facilities. In the following year the Bureau spent $17,000,000 establishing 4,00 schools, 100 hospitals, and food for former slaves.
