Number of Pages 3

This research paper: A 3 page research paper that draws on the essay "Plans Dat Comed From God" by Armstead Robinson, which examines how the newly freed blacks of Memphis handled the problems of emancipation in Reconstruction era. In analyzing their situation, Robinson relies heavily on the records of the Freedmen's Savings and Trust Company, as well as other municipal records. Examination of how Robinson used the records of the Freedman's Bank illustrates excellent historical scholarship, as it illuminates the nature and social structure of the black community in Memphis during this time. No additional sources cited.
