Let My People Go

African Americans 1804-1860 (the Young Oxford History Of African Americans, Vol 4)

BY DEBORAH GRAY WHITE

Brief Description:
Explores what slavery was like for men, women, and children in white homes and plantations, but also shows how slaves created communities, how they fought back, and how they contributed to the system's decline. Even in rare "free" communities, the central goal of free African Americans, was to fight for the complete abolition of slavery. This sense of brotherhood, of community, speeded slavery's demise and still guides African American history today. Grade 5 & up
