THIS IS WHAT WE MEAN BY REPERATIONS
Forty Acres and a Mule Order By General Sherman Was a Promise Never Kept
The phrase Forty Acres and a Mule described a promise many freed slaves believed the U.S. government had made at the end of the Civil War. A rumor spread throughout the South that land belonging to plantation owners would be given to former slaves so they could set up their own farms.
The rumor did have its roots in an order issued by General William Tecumseh Sherman of the U.S. Army in January 1865 Sherman, following the capture of Savannah, Georgia, ordered that abandoned plantations along the Georgia and South Carolina coasts be divided up and plots of land be given to freed blacks. However, Sherman's order did not become permanent government policy. And when lands confiscated from former Confederates were returned to them by the administration of President Andrew Johnson, the freed slaves who had been given 40 acres of farmland were evicted.
Sharecropping Became the Reality for Freed Slaves
Denied the opportunity to own their own small farms, most former slaves were forced to live under the system of sharecropping. Life as a sharecropper generally meant living in poverty. And sharecropping would have been a bitter disappointment to people who once believed they could become independent farmers.
You racist fucks have been lying for centuries......GIVE US OUR 40 ACRES AND A MULE.
