    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Perry Hicks talks about working in a cotton mill in western North Carolina in the early twentieth century. He was born in 1899 and began working at a young age because he dropped out of the six-month school he was attending. He explains the influence the unions had: &quot;naturally, I have, all my life, been opposed to the unions.&quot; He says that the unions caused inflation, so the poor people didn&#039;t come out ahead anyway. He eventually left the cotton mill because he couldn&#039;t support his family.]]></dcterms:description>
