may 12, 1863 - The Black Man: His Antecedents, Genius, & Achievements // Frances Ellen Watkins - William Wells Brown

Description:

describes the anti-slavery poetry (as well as the poetry about choosing a husband) of Watkins; Brown does not include much description about Watkins other than her hometown, her age, her wittiness, and her "simplicity of a child"; lack of narrative about Watkins (as well as the small number of women featured in the book overall) show sexism on Brown's part
