Created by the Federal Writers' Project, it preserves over 2,000 interviews with formerly enslaved individuals across seventeen states. These firsthand accounts capture the last generation's memories of slavery before emancipation. However, the collection's use of primarily white interviewers has sparked ongoing debate about bias and authenticity, making these narratives both invaluable historical documents and contested sites of memory.
