The "American South" includes my fair city Baltimore, which stayed in the Union through force. One of our contentious mayors (all of 'em are contentious) did us a favor of removing Jim Crow era statues celebrating traitors to their country. One is now an empty plinth celebrating Harriet Tubman.

Your Labor Day reminder that if the minimum wage increased at the rate of inflation & productivity since 1960 it'd be $28 today—not $7.25.
