Description
Yankee Stepfather: General O. O. Howard and the Freedmen (Revised)Instructed by Congress to divide lands abandoned to the Union army into forty acre plots and award them to freedmen, Howard began a program that might have given many families farms of their own. The effort had barely begun when it ran into President Andrew Johnson's policy of returning such lands to former white owners. Soon Howard and his agents were under pressure not to assist the free people, but to coerce them into working for landlords. And
Instructed by Congress to divide lands abandoned to the Union army into forty-acre plots and award them to freedmen, Howard began a program that might have given many families farms of their own. The effort had barely begun when it ran into President Andrew Johnson's policy of returning such lands to former white owners. Soon Howard and his agents were under pressure not to assist the free people, but to coerce them into working for landlords.
And yet, however tarnished the record, the Bureau was still recalled by W. E. B. DuBois for its "bright promise." Yankee Stepfather provides a revealing, and troubling, picture of the complex relationship of African Americans to their government at a crucial juncture in American history.
In a new foreword to this edition, William S. McFeely places his book, first published in 1968, in its place in the scholarship on race relations of the past quarter-century.

So happy I found a sugar free lollipop! I've only had the pink and red ones and they taste great! They last a good amount of time, easy to open. Good quality product. I will order again.

Yummy,great to keep from junk snacking but flavor ratio in tubs is way off.
Color: Assorted, Size: 1 Pound (Pack of 1), Color: Assorted, Size: 1 Pound (Pack of 1)
Love these lollies!! They are a big part of my weightloss journey. I used to grab sweet treats at night and just binge. But since I discovered these, they are the only sweet treat in my house. When my snack urge hits watching my shows at night I grab one of these and one lasts nice and long where my "hand to mouth" thing is satisfied.
They do give you gas if you eat too many in one setting.
But after 3 months of 2-3 a night ( long movie or 3 episodes of a show) I feel my system has gotten used to it and has no more gassy reaction. Lol
I did loose 14 lbs since Jan 1st trading night time snacks ( chips, chocolate, cookies, ice cream) with these suckered.
They are a pinch overpriced.
But they are yummy.
BUT unless you get the individual bags, getting a tub is a gamble on the ratio.
I wish they'd put an equal amount of each flavor in the tub. This one had mainly pineapple(13), orange-least favorite (18) and grape(17). Whereas the strawberry(5), cherry (5) and my favorite; Rasberry-a measly 2 of them, were highly underrepresented!
Its not my first tub. I thought last time it was a fluke, but this time, same thing.
Hence the one star deduction.
Btw, Im not the only one in the house to enjoy them.
Daughters and grandkids ( and their friends) like them as well.

They taste better than expected- make sure to check the label
Color: Assorted, Size: 6 Ounce (Pack of 1)
The company is going through a transition right now, so some of them have xylitol and some of them do not. If you are looking for the kind with xylitol, this one is not it. But it makes it very confusing because one page will have different products and someone will have xylitol and someone will not so make sure you are looking at the ingredients and cross referencing what you can see in the picture and what's in the description. I got a couple kinds and I have found that what is in the picture the ingredients in the picture is what I actually got. If you're looking for the Non- xylitol kind with the other two ingredients that are good for teeth than it's this this one. I use other xylitol products so I was looking for the other two ingredients specifically. If either way it doesn't matter to you then I would go ahead and purchase for an adult or a child. But you have to be more careful with the xylitol kind if you were using other types of xylitol or have a sensitive stomach or IBS or you're giving it to a child. It may upset a child's stomach, especially if eaten in high amounts, you can get gas and diarrhea. So I was looking for specifically the one without xylitol. And for a product without xylitol or sugar, these taste great. I am a fan however I do like the.zolli balz kind a bit better. For a younger child, this shape is less of a chocking hazard.
