Where slaves during the civil war were not allowed to learn to read and write?
During the Civil War, enslaved individuals in the Southern United States were generally prohibited from learning to read and write due to laws known as slave codes. These laws aimed to prevent enslaved people from gaining knowledge that could empower them to resist or escape. As a result, education for enslaved individuals was often clandestine and dangerous, with severe punishments for those caught teaching or learning to read and write. This restriction was part of a broader system of oppression aimed at maintaining control over the enslaved population.
