Southern Hospitali...zation - a deeper look at the Montgomery riverboat fight

A viral video shows a group of white men in Montgomery, AL attacking a Black dock worker. Then, the men got beaten up by Black onlookers.

Critics call the tune xenophobic and threatening.We’ll get some context on the song from Ole Miss Prof. Adam Gussow, a scholar of Southern culture. Liked this episode?
