Explanation:

During Reconstruction, poor blacks and poor whites in the South often became sharecroppers or tenant farmers.

Sharecropping became very popular and widespread in the South as a response to economic upheaval caused by the end of slavery. During reconstruction, former slaves and many small white farmers became trapped in a new system of economic exploitation known as sharecropping. A lack capital and land of their own, former slaves were forced to work for large landowners. The freedmen, who wanted autonomy and independence, refused to sign contracts that required gang labor. Ultimately, sharecropping emerged as a sort of compromise.

nativists tried to get rid of the immigrants as they thought they were going to ruin the u.s.
