Analyzing land policy, labor, and legal history, Keri Leigh Merritt reveals what happens to excess workers when a capitalist system is predicated on slave labor. With the rising global demand for cotton - and thus, slaves - in the 1840s and 1850s, the need for white laborers in the American South was drastically reduced, creating a large underclass who were unemployed or underemployed. These poor whites could not compete - for jobs or living wages - with profitable slave labor. Though impoverished whites were never subjected to the daily violence and degrading humiliations of racial slavery, they did suffer tangible socio-economic consequences as a result of living in a slave society. Merritt examines how these 'masterless' men and women threatened the existing Southern hierarchy and ultimately helped push Southern slaveholders toward secession and civil war.Binding Type: Paperback

Usually good, but not this time
Size: 1 lbs
The last bag was very hard but I am softening them up with “sugar bears”. When we first started getting them you could easily cut them & my girl loved them. Then we got a bag that molded within a couple weeks. I tried others but my girl didn’t like any as well as these. Eventually I came back to Dave’s & it was fine until this last bag & she wouldn’t eat them.

Good value

A good value. The treats are a variety of sizes and my dog really likes them. They are fairly chewy so he doesn’t gobble them right down. I like that they are a healthy treat, since he can eat high fat or high sodium treats.
