"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. Over 2,000 interviews with formerly enslaved individuals were gathered across seventeen states, preserving the last generation's memories before they vanished. These firsthand accounts offer invaluable glimpses into American slavery, though historians debate how the predominantly white interviewers may have shaped the stories. The collection contains over 10,000 pages of narratives, photographs, and audio recordings. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
