They were treated poorly, and work was hard to find.

Explanation:

After the Civil War African Americans gained freedom but life remained difficult. African Americans received poor treatment, work was hard to find because during slavery they were forbidden to learn how to read or write so they had poor educational levels. They lived in rural poverty and were forced to rent land from their former slave owners which made them tied to the old system. The situation got even worse when the Black Codes started to pass and limited even more the life of ex-slaves.
