SLAVERY AFTER SLAVERY "The Journal-Constitution last week assembled a remarkable group to discuss a remarkable book: 'Slavery by Another Name: The Re-enslavement of Black Americans From the Civil War to World War II.' The new book documents a South unknown to many —- a place in which white sheriffs, politicians and businessmen got rich by enslaving thousands of black men for decades after emancipation. The process was simple and evil: Black men were arrested on a pretext, shunted through a rigged system and then chained like animals and sent to work off their sentences or debts in coal mines and steel mills and on plantations."
