Settlers by J. Sakai is the one with the bad citations and is dated nowadays.

I would suggest Fight Like Hell by Kim Kelly for the other side of the story when it comes to the labor movement in the United States.

I know Settlers is dated now, I just wanted to see what all the hype was about. It’s got some good information but I definitely want to look into the more reasonable and well sourced works of Gerald Horne among others.

Yeah, Gerald Horne's works are better and more reasonable.

By the way, I had just noticed your absence for almost a month just a few days ago, so it’s funny you happened to come back now.

I never intended to leave. I love this place. But I am a mod now of Hexbear. So that also takes priority. But I've also been pushingn for Lemmygrad a long time now. And I will continue pushing for it. So there's that.
