Radical Responses to the The Great Depression

Great United Front Mooney-Scottsboro Mass Meeting Bronx Coliseum.
Flyer.
[New York], 1933.

The grim experiences of the Scottsboro Boys in Alabama prisons were discreetly veiled as long as appeals were lodged in the courts. After his dramatic escape in 1948, Haywood Patterson wrote an exposé in collaboration with Earl Conrad. Ironically, while peddling this book, Patterson got into a barroom knife fight in Detroit and received a 15-20 year sentence at Michigan State Prison, where he died from cancer in 1952.
