Annotation |
Due to her pale complexion, young freed slave Mary Mildred Williams became a key figure for abolitionist Senator Charles Sumner's efforts to overturn slavery. The author recounts Mary's story, its parallels to the antislavery movement, and the eventual signing of the Emancipation Proclamation. Some violence and some strong language. Commercial audiobook. 2019.
