Harlan Miners Speak, originally published in 1932, remains today a vivid record of the plight of coal miners in eastern Kentucky. Led by prominent left-leaning writers Theodore Dreiser, John Dos Passos, and Sherwood Anderson, the National Committee for the Defense of Political Prisoners traveled to Harlan County, Kentucky, in 1931 to examine the situation of the miners and their families.
