Its failure to provide blacks with farm property of their own
Sharecropping and tenant farming both emerged as labor systems in the South after the Civil War and Reconstruction. Both systems involved individuals working on land owned by others in exchange for a share of the crops produced. The laborers in these systems typically faced economic struggles and limited autonomy.
one way reconstruction was a failure is that the freedman bureau burn down the blacks school, meaning no freedom what so ever for the blacks.
Reconstruction was indeed a failure, the criteria was not met.
WELL RECONSTRUCTION WAS BOTH GOOD AND BAD FOR THE COUNTRY. WHAT WAS GOOD ABOUT RECONSTRUCTION WAS THE FREEDMANS BUERAU. WHAT WAS BAD WAS THE BLACK CODES, JIM CROW LAWS, SHARECROPPING, AND ALL THAT STUFF
A black sharecropper might evaluate reconstruction negatively as promises of land ownership and economic opportunities were not fully realized. The rise of sharecropping perpetuated economic dependency and limited social mobility for many black individuals, reinforcing systemic racial inequalities. The failure to address racial discrimination and protect civil rights further compounded the challenges faced by black sharecroppers during this period.
During Reconstruction, there were efforts to address land reform in the South, specifically by redistributing land to formerly enslaved individuals. However, these efforts were largely unsuccessful due to political opposition, lack of resources, and the implementation of sharecropping systems that kept many African Americans in a cycle of debt and poverty. Overall, land reform during Reconstruction did not result in significant changes in land ownership patterns in the South.
The South reverted to its racist ways following Reconstruction.
