African American workers returning from picking cotton, on Alexander Knox's plantation, Mount Pleasant, SC, c. 1874. The ante-bellum social and labor hierarchy was re-imposed upon landless African Americans within a decade after the Civil War. The idealistic schemes for land distribution faded, as politicians could not face confiscating private property from former rebel planters. Photo by George Barnard
