The goals of sharecroppers and plantation owners conflicted primarily over economic interests and power dynamics. Sharecroppers sought to earn a stable income and gain autonomy by cultivating land, while plantation owners aimed to maximize profits by maintaining control over labor and minimizing costs.

Ultimately, the conflicting goals reflected broader social and economic inequalities in the post-Civil War South.
Yes, the plantation owners often had hired-hands or "overseers" to supervise their slaves.
Plantation owners demonstrated trust in slaves by assigning them supervisory roles over other slaves, allowing them to handle money or valuable items, and permitting them to work outside the plantation unsupervised.

This fundamental clash over labor rights and economic equity fueled tensions between the two groups.
