Why did Samuel childess think that the future for freedmen in the south was gloomy?

Samuel Childess believed the future for freedmen in the South was gloomy due to the deep-rooted social and economic challenges they faced after the Civil War. He observed that systemic racism, lack of access to education, and limited economic opportunities made it difficult for freedmen to achieve true independence and prosperity. Additionally, the emergence of discriminatory laws and practices, such as Black Codes, further restricted their rights and freedoms, perpetuating cycles of poverty and disenfranchisement. Overall, Childess felt that without significant societal change, freedmen would struggle to improve their circumstances in the post-war South.
