"Biography of a Slave, Being the Experiences of Rev. Charles Thompson" is a slave narrative published in 1875. Thompson recounts his childhood in Mississippi, where he witnessed families torn apart to prevent rebellion after his owner's death. He describes his mother's passing, his uncle's desperate attempt to remain with his wife, and his own experiences being hired out to different plantations. As an adult slave, Thompson taught Christianity to fellow enslaved people, later becoming a preacher in the United Brethren Church. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
