The Freedmen’s Bureau

Objective By the end of the lesson students should be able to explain the purpose of the Freedmen’s Bureau By the end of the lesson students should be able to explain what services the Freedmen’s Bureau offered.

South After the Civil War The South was destroyed by the Civil War. Cities were burned down. Plantations were destroyed by all of the fighting.

The South After the Civil War

Ex-Slaves The Emancipation Proclamation and the 13th Amendment gave the slaves their freedom!

The Slaves are Free! Yay! The slaves are free! However.... Did the slaves now have homes? Did the slaves now have a job? Did the slaves now have a way to get medicine if they are sick?

The Ex-Slaves Did the slaves have any of those things? NO!

So what would you do if you were part of the U.S. Government and in charge of solving this problem?

The Freedman’s Bureau President of the United States Andrew Johnson decided to help the freed slaves by setting up the Freedmen’s Bureau.

Freedman’s Bureau The Freedmen’s Bureau was a government organization set up to help freed slaves get an education, job, healthcare, and the skills needed to start a new life!

The Freedman’s Bureau Break it down! Freed - meaning not in slavery anymore Men - people Together it means people that are not in slavery anymore!

Freedman’s Bureau The Freedmen’s Bureau helped a lot of former slaves.

Freedman’s Bureau The Freedmen’s Bureau was part of Reconstruction. Reconstruction was the rebuilding of the South after the Civil War!

Freedman’s Bureau - Healthcare The Freedmen’s Bureau tried to set up new hospitals and clinics to help those people that were sick. Many former slaves needed a doctor because they went their whole lives without getting any medicine for bad health problems.

Jobs The Freedmen’s Bureau also helped former slaves get jobs. Former slaves did not have jobs because they were now free from their plantations. They needed jobs to support their families!

Freedmen’s Bureau Jobs

Education The Freemen’s Bureau also helped build schools for African Americans and former slaves. These schools were very important because a lot of African Americans did not know how to read, or do any math!

Education One of the first schools for African Americans built by the Freedmen’s Bureau.

Project You are working for the Freedmen’s Bureau. Design a poster that advertises to freed slaves all of the ways that the Freedmen’s Bureau can help them! Remember former slaves cannot read that well so make sure they will understand your poster.
