Question 13 • (AG Q4) American History 8: 25-26 (AHostetler)

What positive impact did sharecropping have on the lives of African American people?

Answer
A
Most families had plenty to eat.
B
Most families lived in their own cabins.
C
Children were able to attend school.
D
Debt usually lessened each year.

Explanation

Sharecropping often kept African American families in poverty and debt, and food was frequently scarce. One limited benefit was that families could live in cabins on the land they worked, though these homes were usually owned by the landowner rather than the families. Therefore, the correct choice is “Most families lived in their own cabins.”
