Description
Morehouse Group,
New Madrid County
The Sharecroppers demonstration of 1939 brought national attention to the plight of sharecroppers, and the construction of 10 Group Labor Home communities was part of compromise reached between federal and state governments, local planters and sharecroppers, and representatives from the Southern Tenant Farmers Union to alleviate poverty and unemployment among Southeast Missouri sharecroppers and farm laborers.
Captured here is one of the remaining original structures constructed by the Farmers Home Administration.
