The SEDM explicitly works to:— Maintain a permanent economic underclass of people living on the edge of poverty,— Rigidify racial and gender barriers to class mobility to lock in women and people of color,— Provide a low-cost labor force to employers,— Prevent unions or any other advocates for workers’ rights to function,— Shift the tax burden to the working poor and what’s left of the middle class while keeping taxes on the morbidly rich extremely low,

— Protect the privileges, power, and wealth of the (mostly white and male) economic overclass,— Ghettoize public education and raise the cost of college to make social and economic mobility difficult,— Empower and subsidize churches to take over public welfare functions like food, housing, and care for indigent people,

— Allow corporations to increase profits by dumping their waste products into the air and water,— Subsidize those industries that financially support the political power structure, and,— Heavily use actual slave labor.For hardcore policy wonks, the Economic Policy Institute(EPI) did a deep dive into the SEDM last month: here’s how it works in summary.

Summary: The Southern economic development model has failed to create shared prosperity in the region. In fact, this model was deliberately designed to do the opposite—to extract the labor of Black and brown Southerners as cheaply as possible. This report examines the racist roots of the model and provides the necessary context to challenge the enduring racial hierarchy in the South.

@Phil We kept the South as an internal colony for a long time.But I disagree with you about Republicans being the friend of the Black man. Nothing could be further from the truth.

@Nonilex "Other studies have not found a link. A 2024 study published in the Journal of the American Medical Association of 2.4 million children born in Sweden found no evidence to support a causal link between the pain reliever use during pregnancy and the risk of autism."
