After the Civil War, a group called "Radical Republicans" passed several bills to aid the freedmen in the South. One of those bills increaced the role of the Freedmen's Bureau.The Freedmen's Bureau was used to help less wealthy black and whites alike.The bureau would help the freedmen by finding them jobs and giving them food and clothing. The agency even established schools and hospitals in the South, for freedmen of all ages. Congress was originally going to fund the agency for a year, however they began to realize how much good the Freedmen's Bureau was doing they kept funding it. Although the agency was a good cause, many (including some freedmen) critized the bureau. Bad bureau officials and slow response to freedmen's needs where often heard complaints. The Freedmen's Bureau was orginally established to help freedmen by educating them, feeding them and teaching them how to make a living as a freed slave.
What would it be like to live in the south as a freedman during Reconstruction?
Samuel Childess believed the future for freedmen in the South was gloomy due to the deep-rooted social and economic challenges they faced after the Civil War. He observed that systemic racism, lack of access to education, and limited economic opportunities made it difficult for freedmen to achieve true independence and prosperity. Additionally, the emergence of discriminatory laws and practices, such as Black Codes, further restricted their rights and freedoms, perpetuating cycles of poverty and disenfranchisement. Overall, Childess felt that without significant societal change, freedmen would struggle to improve their circumstances in the post-war South.
The Freedmen's Bureau was an organization that was started after the Civil War to help the newly freed slaves... it was there to help slaves adapt to their new freedom and to help to educate them.. so they would be able to read and write. ** note: While it was set up to help former slaves we find that often those directly involved in the Freedman Bureau abused their position and used their power to abuse the Southerns.. that they felt needed punishing for the war.
The view of Reconstruction that advocated for harsh penalties against former Confederates while extending full rights to Freedmen was primarily associated with the Radical Republicans. This faction within the Republican Party sought to ensure civil rights for formerly enslaved people and believed that a stringent approach was necessary to transform Southern society and prevent former Confederates from regaining power. Prominent figures like Thaddeus Stevens and Charles Sumner were key proponents of this perspective, pushing for legislation that would protect the rights of Freedmen and impose severe consequences on those who had participated in the Confederacy.

Yes, however it would be unusual. He would have to agree to become a priest and bishop before he could be made a cardinal, however.
"I agree" in Irish is "Aontaím"; "I agree with you" would be "Aontaím leat".
