Blair LM Kelley, director of The Center for the Study of the American South at the University of North Carolina, joins to discuss her recent book Black Folk: The Roots of the Black Working Class. https://twitter.com/profblmkelley?lang=en https://south.unc.edu/ https://wwnorton.com/books/9781631496554 Blair LM Kelley, jumps right into the absurd presentation of the working class in US politics, with a consistent focus on rural and suburban white populations despite the long and intricate history of a Black and POC working class in the US. First, Kelley steps back and parses through her own family’s history as members of the Black working class in the US, exploring how they were barred from working the jobs that they were skilled in or that allowed them any economic or social freedom – a practice deeply embedded in the US’ history well after the Civil War – before stepping back to analyze how this systemic deskilling of African Americans alongside the social segregation worked to shape the stereotypes of Black Americans as dependent on the government, despite the constant reality of Black Americans paying the same taxes and receiving drastically fewer benefits.
