Answer:

If African Americans were not toiling the land, they needed to find labor. They faced discrimination in the same way as women did at the time. They were either not hired or were paid less than the white American guy.

Answer:

If African Americans were not tilling the land, they had to find work somewhere. They were discriminated against just as women were during this time. Either they were not given the job or they were paid less wages than the white American male (McGraw-Hill pg559).
