  1. Episode 1

    Convict Leasing & The Chain Gangs: The 13th Amendment

    The American Civil War may have ended slavery, but one crucial clause in the 13th Amendment left the door open to a new form of exploitation. This episode explores how that loophole shaped the decades that followed, tracing the origins of convict leasing and asking whether slavery truly ended—or simply evolved. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    Convict Leasing & The Chain Gang: The Chain Remains

    Reconstruction briefly offered hope for genuine freedom and equality, but that hope was systematically dismantled. From the rise of the Ku Klux Klan and the Black Codes to the writings of George Washington Cable and the tragedy of President James Garfield's assassination, this episode examines how opportunity gave way to oppression and how convict leasing became embedded across the American South. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
