Slavery by another name
The Re-Enslavement of Black Americans from the Civil War to World War II
Book • 2008
In this groundbreaking book, Douglas A. Blackmon uncovers one of the most shameful chapters in American history.
Using original documents and personal narratives, Blackmon details the 'Age of Neoslavery' where thousands of Black men and women were falsely imprisoned, leased to companies, and subjected to harsh labor conditions, effectively re-enslaving them.
The book highlights the partnership between corporations, state governments, and local authorities that perpetuated this system and its lasting impact on American society.
