Were freedmen truly free during reconstruction

Yes and no, while slaves were freed from their bondage of slavery, there were still many hardships left for them. Racial prejudice was still rampant as people still saw African Americans as lesser beings. Many of them could not read or write and therefore not get a job. Many freed slaves were still bound to the land they worked as they did not have the money to go anywhere else.

the answer is c, all the other options are things they are known for.

hope this ☺️

for hobos it was a very hard time most hid on the sides of the railroad tracks causing people to get bulls and get them off sometimes causing in fatal death they couldnt get people to give them money because the   people were also in need of money
