After the Civil War, the first task for more than 4 million freed slaves was to seek stability and security in their new lives. Many focused on reuniting with separated family members, finding employment, and securing land to cultivate for their own sustenance. Additionally, education became a priority, as many sought to learn to read and write, which was essential for their social and economic advancement. The establishment of organizations like the Freedmen's Bureau also played a crucial role in assisting them during this transition.
