in 1861, general benjamin butler -- he was stationed at fort monroe in virginia -- he was the general at this fort, and during his time there, african-americans escaped from their enslaver. they sought refuge at the fort. they were taken in, but the next day there was knocking on the door demanding that their enslaved people were returned. butler, who was a lawyer before the war, thinking on his toes, said that these people were now contraband of war. that is where the term comes from. this term spread like wildfire. today as historians we use it to describe formerly enslaved people who found their refugee and freedom during the time. but during the war, this term was used in white communities as a very derogative term. it was used to describe formerly enslaved people with the idea that they were helpless and childlike. and in the african-american community, this was used to differentiate people who had their freedom before the war and people who gained their freedom during the war. in alexandria, these encampments started cropping up and women in particular started noticing they need

monroe, the new nixon is a little older.
