This is a photograph of Lincoln C. Johnson, taken by photographer Alfred T. Palmer for the United States Office of War in 1942. The caption reads "Negroes speed war work for Tennessee Valley Authority. Lincoln C. Johnson, sub-labor foreman at Wilson Dam, is in charge of an expert crew responsible for unloading carbide drums and having them on hand for reloading. Speedy work saves TVA money by avoiding demurrage on railway cars. He is vice-president of the Hot Carriers' local union and in the last few months has been business agent."]]> 1942-06]]>
