Having trouble.....

So I have founds lots of information about sharecroppers and the Roadside Demonstration of 1939. The problem I am having is what the sharecroppers community was like! Professor Sullivan recommended some books at the MSU library that I rented out about Mississippi culture but I have found these books to be very general. I want to focus on the Bootheel of Mississippi and I'm still not sure what the community was like during the Great Depression. Help!

    Relax, lol... this jus could mean that you need revise your intial focus, but keep digging. I was having trouble as well with finding sources but I had to change a few major details and I'm alot more happy with the sources I have found. Have you tried to search google books, or journal articles? I hope you find all your looking for, and I'm sorry I cant be of more help.

    I would talk to people. Everyone's got a connection with someone who knows someone who knows someone... Super strange, but always true!! That's all I've got though, sorry I can't be of help and hopefully you get it all sorted out!
