INCIDENTS IN THE LIFE OF SLAVE GIRL: UNABRIDGED

Sinopsis de INCIDENTS IN THE LIFE OF SLAVE GIRL: UNABRIDGED

This classic memoir of slave life, written by a highly-literate North Carolina slave, was first published at the beginning of the Civil War when Jacobs had escaped to the North and begun campaigning for abolition. Her narrative focused especially clearly on the ways that slavery degraded women through sexual abuse and the separation of mothers from their children.
