Give 40 acres & a mule or Cash equivalent to AfricanAmerican descendants of the slave trade 18 & over the next 100 years

Created by S.M. on February 09, 2014

African American families make the least amount of money and spend the most . The financial burden on their families due to ill practice in real estate and outsourcing in manufacturing and production during the abolishing of slavery lead to financial dysfunction & deficiency. proclamations such as Sherman's Special Field Orders, No. 15 & the Freedmen's Bureau Act were explicitly reversed.Some land redistribution occurred under military jurisdiction during the war and for a brief period thereafter. But, Federal and state policy during the Reconstruction era emphasized wage labor, not land ownership, African slaves built and cultivated the land of many countries that are a part of the U.N. Black History Month is not enough recognition of the preceding facts. 40 acres or Cash equivalent
