How did conditions for southern famers and laborers change from 1865 to 1900?

Answer 1

In the early 1860's poor white people and African Americans would work on plantations for money and because African Americans had no where to really go that they'd be accepted. As the years passed farmers went through sharecropping, where a farmer worked a parcel of land in return for a share of the crop, a cabin, seed tools and a mule, but sharecroppers had no income until harvest time. From there, farmers became an option for low income.
