V prvních dvou kapitolách využívá tato práce převážně metody sondy, díky které v rámci historického kontextu analyzuje projevy dělnického hnutí a hnutí za občanská práva Afroameričanů v Minnesotě. V případě obou hnutí dochází primárně k identifikaci klíčových vlivů a aktérů. Druhá kapitola pak detailněji zkoumá, jaký dopad měl rasismus a diskriminace na vývoj dělnického hnutí a naopak jak se dělnické hnutí vypořádávalo s rasovou segregací.
