| | WORKIN' ON THE CHAIN GANG
More accurately, the convict work gang detail. But, in some cases prisoners were chained together. Scenes like the one above were common in the South and continued into modern times. "Prison Work Gang"; Ensley, Alabama c.1934 could be confused with a scene from a movie except for the fact that this was reality for many convicts.
