Bound Labor in the Turpentine Belt: Kinderlou Camp and Misdemeanor Convict Leasing in Georgia
Thomas Aiello
After the constitutional end to slavery in the US, southern white landowners replaced labor by enslaved people with systems of bound labor. In this book, Thomas Aiello examines the Deep South’s dependence on debt peonage and convict leasing systems and draws attention to a form of bound labor not discussed by scholars of racialized incarceration.
