The postbellum United States was a very unfriendly place for freed slaves. Many Freed slaves actually stayed on their plantations (where they were certainly not educated) due to the difficultly of finding employment in an incredibly prejudiced society and the relative sercuity they had on a plantation. Of those slaves that did leave the plantations many moved to cites where they became the urban poor. In short aside from isolated attempts from the Freedmen's Bureau(established by the radical republicans and almost as quickly abolished by the consecrative Andrew Johnson) freed slaves were not educated

A slave might have learned to read and write by seeing writings all around and they copy it and write it down.

They learn to read by pronouncing the letters that they know, so they learn to read like that.

How do Americans treat Americans?

Badly, at least in the past. They weren't allowed to have an education and were forced to be slaves. As slaves they ate scraps and weren't allowed to live in their masters house. They thought the blacks had germs later on and had to go to different toilets, shops, barbers, etc. There is a book called To Kill a Mockingbird about this. It is confusing at the beginning.
