In the early 1800s, free blacks in the North had limited but noteworthy opportunities compared to their enslaved counterparts in the South. They could engage in various trades, own property, and some even established small businesses. However, they faced significant discrimination and legal barriers that restricted their rights, such as voting and access to education. Despite these challenges, free blacks contributed to abolitionist movements and played vital roles in their communities.
