    About this ebook

    This month, the United States holiday of Labor Day is recognized. In honor of working people, the Good Genes Genealogy Services duo provide interesting content about how African American labor was regarded in relation to all other workers. There’s the interesting timeline that shows how invested in the slave aka “free work” society. Perhaps the most interesting and strategic rebellions against a specific segment of low wages for long and hard hours of work, is found in the Atlanta Washerwomen’s Strike of 1881.
    African American history is world history. Read, ask questions and most of all, enjoy this journey into the specialized and rewarding world of African, African American and Afro Caribbean genealogy.
