Challenges the idea that convict slavery for blacks began with the 13th Amendment and locates the history in the experience of the struggles of blacks for freedom and equality before and after the Civil War. It links the current era of mass incarnation not to emancipation, but to the United States’ response to era of black equal rights resulting from the Civil Rights Movement.
