18 jun 1772 ano - Slave Narrative

Descrição:

"Ukawsaw Fronniosaw, also known as James Albert, writes the first autobiogrpahical slave narrative. The narrative chronicles his life from capture in what is now Nigeria through slavery and poverty in England.

Slave narratives--often promoted by the abolitionist movement--provided crucial accounts of the reality of slavery. More than a hundred slave narratives were published before emancipation, and thousands more recorded in the 19th and 20th century."
