True or False

Free African Americans had more liberties than the enslaved in the North and the South

Answer: That's true the other two are false

FALSE

Free southern blacks continued to live under the shadow of slavery, unable to travel or assemble as freely as those in the north. It was also more difficult for them to organise and sustain churches, school or fraternal orders such as the Masons. Their lives were surrounded by many discriminatory laws even in the colonial period.
