Abstract
|
:
|
During World War I, thousands of rural southern men, black and white, refused to serve in the military. Jeanette Keith trace this resistance; including whites' political opposition to militarism, southern blacks' reluctance to serve a nation that refused to respect their rights, and anger at class bias in federal conscription policies.
