Ray - Labor in the South:From AI: Labor in the South by F. Ray Marshall examines the development and conditions of labor movements and the workforce in the southern United States. The book covers the unique economic, social, and political challenges that shaped labor relations in the South, including factors like the agricultural dominance, racial segregation, and the influence of organized labor. Marshall discusses how the southern labor market evolved through industrialization, urbanization, and federal labor policies. This work is notable for analyzing the roles of race and class, as well as the region's lag in unionization compared to other parts of the U.S. Shirley, Neal - Dixie Be Damned:From Publisher: In 1891, when coal companies in eastern Tennessee brought in cheap convict labor to take over their jobs, workers responded by storming the stockades, freeing the prisoners, and loading them onto freight trains. Over the next year, tactics escalated to include burning company property and looting company stores. This was one of the largest insurrections in US working-class history. It happened at the same time as the widely publicized northern labor war in Homestead, Pennsylvania. And it was largely ignored, then and now.
