Summary: "Slave Narratives: A Folk History of Slavery in the United States from Interviews with Former Slaves" is a historical account compiled during the mid-20th century. This work features first-person narratives from former slaves, detailing their experiences before, during, and after the Civil War. The narratives highlight personal stories, giving voice to their struggles, resilience, and the impact of slavery on their lives and communities. The opening of this collection introduces several informants, each sharing poignant recollections of their childhood and experiences as slaves.
