Family life improved significantly for freed African Americans after the Civil War.

The economic lives of former slaves were transformed after the Civil War. Better conditions for family life were presented. New systems of labor emerged. Sharecropping was the new form of growing crops, principally in the cotton and tobacco fields of the Southern states. Another form was wage labor, a practice more favored on sugar plantations.

Some black farmers had the option of renting land but the majority worked and received a wage.
