During the Civil War most slaves did not get any education.  Very few were able to write and read, an example would be Alice Alexander she said "Came in soch of ejacation.  I got a pretty fare ejacation down dar but diden take care of it"(Alexander).Alice Alexander proved that many slaves wanted to get an education to be able to read and write. She went from Louisiana to Oklahoma in a wagon in search of a better education.

After the war the African Americans had a very strong drive to get educated and become smart. They wanted to succeed and become smart so alot of them did anything they could to get into school. They wanted to start working for actual money. Charles Williams was a former slave and stated "I master my education. I learnt all my book by heart"(Williams). This showes how much that they wanted to succeed and get good jobs and start working for money.

Education for slaves was not the same as it was for the whites before the Civil War. Betty Cofer was a former slave and she stated "We didn't have no colored teachers. they wasnt educated yet"(Crofer). This shows that the African Americans were just starting to become educated and did not have anyone with enough smarts to teach yet. They knew the basic numbers and alphabet. Cofer only went to school 4 months a year.
