The Florida Modern-Day Slavery Museum consists of a cargo truck outfitted as a replica of the truck involved in a recent slavery operation, accompanied by displays on the history and evolution of slavery in Florida. The video is set to, “Captain, Don’t You Kill Old Bob,” performed by Fred Lee Fox, a 20-year-old turpentine worker. The song was recorded by Stetson Kennedy in August 1939 at a labor camp outside Cross City, Dixie County, Florida.
