In it he comments on three topics: the condition of African Americans in Murfreesboro and Rutherford County, the Ku Klux Klan and their activities, and the labor market. Dean comments on the further solidification of sharecropping as the dominant agricultural economic model in the county, and how employers are taking advantage of those who sharecrop on their land.
