• This Civil War prison camp was located in
southern Georgia.
• It is known for its especially horrific conditions –
lack of food, clothing, shelter, medical
care…unsanitary, disease-causing environment.
• It was created in 1864, and although it was only
open for about 15 months, an estimated 13,000
Union soldiers die there.
•
Conf. Captain Henry Wirz was prosecuted and hanged
for these crimes despite his pleads to the Confederate
govt. for help. They just didn’t have those things to
spare – they didn’t even have enough of these supplies
for themselves.

This organization was started by the U.S.
government in 1865 in order to help freed
slaves and poor whites with the basic needs of
food, clothing, and shelter after the Civil War.
Soon, the purpose shifted to education,
and it created 4,000 primary schools, started
industrial schools for jobs training, and started
teacher-training schools.
Southern, white Democrats disliked this
organization and felt like it gave freedmen and
women “plenty eat and nothing to do.”

These men were both African-American civil rights
leaders in the early 1900s.
The first encouraged African-Americans to accept their lower social
status for the time being and to focus instead on advancement
through career training, education, and economic independence.
He thought that over time, whites would realize that blacks should
be treated more fairly. He gave a famous speech about this called
“The Atlanta Compromise” at the 1895 International Cotton Expo.
The other man believed that African Americans could only gain
respect from and equality with educated and powerful white people
through the development of a black elite class which he called the
“talented tenth.” He thought the other man’s approach was weak
and would take too long to work. The 2nd man was also the
founding leader of the NAACP (National Association for the

Released after the Union army’s win at
Antietam, this document freed all slaves
living in “states in rebellion” after Jan. 1, 1863.
Confederate states were given 90 days from Sept
22, 1862 to come back to the US, and if they did,
they wouldn’t have to give up their slaves.

Freeing slaves in states in rebellion would help the
Union by allowing freedmen of combat age to join
the Union arm, and it would hurt the Confederacy
because freedmen would stop working on farms
and plantations and this would cause the South to

These were both ways that poor whites and
newly-freed blacks farmed after the Civil War.
Both types of farmers relied on a landowner for
land and some supplies; however, one of them
had a clear advantage because they came into
the relationship already having some supplies
and therefore did not have to go into as much
debt as the other farmer did. Both were extremely
tough and not very profitable, and over time they
becomes unprofitable for the land owners too.

15 blacks had their right to vote messed with in the
early-mid 1900s in GA.
The first term means to take away someone’s right to
vote.
The second term means to draw up an election district
in such a way that it benefits a certain group. It was
done to weaken numbers of black voters and make it so
that there were more whites in the district to overpower
them at the polls.
