"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. For instance, Isaac Adams recalls growing up on a Louisiana plantation and the various figures in his life, including the kind plantation owner, Master Sack. Meanwhile, Alice Alexander offers memories of her early life under a new master following the death of her previous one, revealing the emotional turmoil connected to being passed between owners. Through these personal stories, the book presents an intimate look into the lives of those who lived through slavery, serving as an important document of American history and the enduring legacy of those who endured such hardship.
