The Hanging of Thomas Jeremiah
The counter-revolution of 1776
Gerald Horne is a prolific and distinguished scholar of African-American history, author of some 20 scholarly books just since 2000. Readers of this journal may be most familiar with his The Deepes
Pills, ills and the ugly face of aesthetic labour
This article presents a vivid account of one woman's experience of taking on a second job - the role of a slimming club consultant - when her husband is made unemployed. Her story highlights how aesthetic labour, particularly when a worker's appearance becomes more prominent over time, can lead to dangerous behaviours, namely the use of weight-loss pills and illegal drugs. These behaviours resulted in sleeplessness, frequent headaches and a feeli…

Race against Time
Race against Time is an important addition to the body of local studies of the civil rights movement. Site of the classic 1941 community study by Allison Davis et al., Deep South, Natchez, Mississippi, has also been home to an unusual conjunction of Old and New South sensibilities and institutions. The Natchez Pilgrimage, organized by elite women in the 1930s, is famous for its displays of mythic images of the Old South, with its tours of antebel…
Roots of Disorder
The "Underclass" Debate
Do ominous reports of an emerging underclass reveal an unprecedented crisis in American society? Or are commentators simply rediscovering the tragedy of recurring urban poverty, as they seem to do every few decades? Although scientists and members of the public make frequent assumptions about these questions, they have little information about the crucial differences between past and present. By providing a badly needed historical context, these …
Crop Choices in the Piedmont Before and After the Civil War
Census and tax data for three counties in the Georgia Piedmont in 1860 and 1880 are used to analyze changes in crop-choice decisions after the Civil War. Although changes in the lower and upper Piedmont were similar, the explanations for these changes in the two areas differ in important respects. In the upper Piedmont the use of fertilizer is a very important explanator, whereas race and tenure are of little significance. Fertilizer is also an i…
