The Freedmen Bureau was a government agency formed by the federal government after the Civil War in America, and it remained from 1865 to 1872. The purpose of the Bureau was to provide food, medical aid, and housing in the South for the freed people in securing their rights and livelihoods. It also gave land to former slaves and tried to put restrictions on slavery. The cartoon from Harper’s Weekly print by Alfred R.
