Question 2 • RMA FL-2100310-United States History Semester 1
Sharecroppers often had to borrow supplies on credit, and high fees or interest could leave them in debt year after year. They could also feel tied to their farms because they owed money to landlords and had little control over when or where they worked.

Sharecropping did not legally prohibit marriage or choosing how to worship.
