Abandoned land was promised to the newly freed blacks.
I would guess that free blacks did not altogether welcome a large influx of newly-liberated slaves, driving down the cost of labour in the low-paid jobs.

The newly freed slaves could join any religious church they wished. Before the war they had generally attended church with their masters and sat in a slave section frequently a balcony or they had worshipped in the afternoon. After the Civil War the free blacks generally moved to similar churches. Some of the Methodists remained Methodists but many more became AME. Most of the Southern Baptists joined other Baptist bodies. The newly liberated blacks simply stayed with a familiar religion.
Copperheads were a minority of Ohioans against the American Civil War.. Many had migrated from slave owning states and still had family involved in slavery. They did not want black slaves freed because they did not want to have to compete with newly freed blacks for jobs.
The Freedmen's Bureau Bill helped newly freed blacks acquire education, medical care, land, work opportunities, and legal assistance. It aimed to provide aid in their transition from slavery to freedom after the Civil War.
Jim Crow personifies the white audience's attitude towards newly-liberated blacks by embodying the pervasive racism and systemic oppression that characterized the post-Civil War era. Through the use of derogatory stereotypes and dehumanizing caricatures, Jim Crow reflects the fear and hostility many whites felt towards black empowerment and civil rights. This character served to reinforce racial segregation and justify discriminatory practices, illustrating how deeply ingrained prejudices sought to maintain white supremacy in society. Ultimately, Jim Crow symbolizes the resistance to social change and the desire to uphold a racially stratified order.
