| Sommario/riassunto: | In this book, readers learn that before the Civil War, a large part of the U.S. economy was built on slave labor and that goods could be produced and sold cheaply because the slaves were unpaid for their labor. Although slavery has been abolished, the racism that sprang from this period still haunts America today. |
