What is the motivation behind the imprisonment of African Americans after the Civil War?

1. To reclaim what was once free labor.
2. To harass for the sake of cruelty.
3. To use prisoners to make money.
4. Numbers 1 and 2.
5. All of the above.

5. And you mean the random jailing of this and that former slave, on a more or less regular basis, not the wholesale imprisonment of every last African American.
