AUTHOR

Albert, Octavia V., Foster, Frances Smith

SUMMARY

Setting out to correct the inadequacies of many written accounts of slavery, teacher and social activist Octavia Albert added her own incisive commentary to the personal narratives of former slaves. Her early interviews, like many antebellum slave narratives, depict cruel punishments, divided families, and debilitating labour. Seeing herself as a public advocate for social change, Albert called for every Christian's personal acceptance of responsibility for slavery's legacies and lessons. As well as its historical value, the book has many merits as a work of literature, using dialogue and experiments with dialect, and incorporating songs and poems in the text.Albert, Octavia V. is the author of 'House of Bondage; Or, Charlotte Brooks and Other Slaves ' with ISBN 9780195052633 and ISBN 0195052633.
