Slavery by Another Name<br />
explore the little-known story of the post-emancipation era and the<br />
labor practices and laws that effectively created a new form of slavery<br />
in the south that persisted well into the 20th century. Based on the<br />

Blackmon, the film also examines the concept of “neoslavery,” which<br />
sentenced African Americans to forced labor for violating an array of<br />
laws that criminalized their everyday behavior.<br />
