... up road signs. This program increased employment and business activity. Another program to be set up in 1933 was the Federal Emergency Relief Act, (FERA.) This program was much different from the PWA because it didn’t create jobs it was more of a hand out. The federal government gave each state money to help their own state. The head of the state could do with the money as they pleased. When FERA went into play, the states set up their own program. They called it the Civil Works Act, (CWA.)

Thus the manipulation of slave labor became the answer for capitalism, and from the use of black slave labor, tension began to rise between the slaves brought from Africa, and the land holders of the South.
