About
"Slave Narratives: A Folk History of Slavery in the United States from…" is a collection compiled between 1936 and 1938 by the Federal Writers' Project. This remarkable archive preserves over 2,000 interviews with formerly enslaved individuals across seventeen states, capturing their firsthand accounts before their generation disappeared. The collection sparked controversy as primarily white interviewers documented these stories during the Jim Crow era, raising questions about bias and what remained unspoken. These voices offer an irreplaceable window into American slavery and its complex legacy. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
