Freedom Achieved? - Evaluating the Success of Reconstruction - With this stations activity, students access whether American Americans really gained freedom during the era of Reconstruction. By analyzing primary sources relating to six topics (Convict Leasing, Sharecropping, Building Black Communities, Black Leadership, Poll Taxes/Literacy Tests and the Black Codes), students see that the freedom was farther away than most assume.
Slavery by Another Name - This video covers the slavery that came after the passage of the 13th amendment. It deals specifically with convict labor and debt peonage. There are interviews with descendants of those placed in convict labor or debt peonage along with reenactments and historical context.
