BACK-ROOM PERSUASION
"...The New York Times carried the observations of a correspondent who upon traveling to the Southern cotton town of Huntsville, Alabama, reported a retail tactic designed to enhance sales among the Black plantation workers and sharecroppers:
Enterprising vendors [Jews] have established refreshment tables. These are found on "n____r day" situated in different parts of the courthouse square. They are plentifully supplied with fried fresh fish, boiled bacon, and corn bread, and for twenty cents a hungry Black man is furnished with all he can eat.
When they have satisfied their appetites they go first to the dry-goods stores. Here, as in the other shops, they are met by obsequious White men [Jews], who conduct them at once to a back or side room, with which most of the stores are supplied. At first I could not fathom the mystery of this ceremony.
After diligent inquiry, however, I discovered that, since the war [Civil War] unprincipled storekeepers, some of them Northern men, have established the custom of giving the country negroes who come to buy, as much whiskey as they wish to drink.
This is done in the back rooms I have mentioned, and when the unfortunate Black men and women are deprived of half their wits by the vile stuff which is served out to them they are induced to purchase all sorts of useless and expensive goods.
In a similar vein, Clive Webb remarked that the Jewish merchant "traded in all things with African-Americans," including such socially destructive commodities as beer, wine, and liquor. And in so doing, the merchants were "not so much providing the lifeblood of the Black community, as injecting it with poison"..."
