Freedman's Bureau

Currently reading the poetic W.E.B Du Bois's The Souls of Black Folk.

Discusses The Freedmen's Bureau here.


 "...The two great obstacles which confronted the officials were the tyrant and the idler, -- the slaveholder who was determined to perpetuate slavery under another name; and, the freedman who regarded freedom as perpetual rest, -- the Devil and the Deep Sea."
