Kemble, Fanny 1809-1893 creator text utu 2004 monographic en 1 online resource : multiple file formats "Journal of a Residence on a Georgian Plantation: 1838-1839" by Fanny Kemble is an account written in 1838-1839 but published in 1863. English actress Kemble documented her experiences on her husband's Georgia plantation, where hundreds were enslaved. Initially appreciating plantation life except for slavery itself, she grew increasingly horrified by the system's brutality. Her conversations with enslaved people and failed attempts to intercede revealed the devastating realities of bondage. Published during the Civil War to sway British opinion against the Confederacy, her journal became a powerful abolitionist document. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
