Happy Juneteenth! It’s worth remembering today that forced, unpaid labor is still common in this country: 13th Amendment, etc. BUT ALSO: people in prison keep finding ways to resist, including through music, which I wrote about for @themarshallproject.org: www.themarshallproject.org/2026/06/14/f...
The call-and-response song was one of many that Black men sang as they toiled on Southern prison farms.
