Annotation |
African-Americans did not accept slavery passively and with good humor. Through the use of primary source materials, Katz lays to rest the myth of the happy, docile slave--which was perpetuated by slave owners and given credence by historians. Katz paints a compelling picture of perpetual, resilient, and active and passive resistance to slavery by men, women, and children. For junior and senior high and older readers.
