Race: The Ignored Dimensions of the Colonial Analogy as Applied to Powerlessness and Exploitation in Appalachia.

Turner, William H.

Western Journal of Black Studies, v7 n1 p10-20 Spr 1983

Examines the social conditions of Blacks in Southern Appalachia, within the context of the region's developing political economy. Suggests that racial equality has not been pursued beyond the need for cooperation between the races, because of reluctance to disturb the preestablished order of Southern life and values.
