Abstract:
In the 1930s, only ten percent of rural Americans had access to electricity. In April 1936, farmers and business people in Tarboro, North Carolina formed a cooperative to apply for help from the Rural Electrification Administration to build a member-owned electric distribution system. This led to North Carolina’s first electric co-op and remains thriving today as Edgecombe-Martin County EMC.
