Unsung

<p><b> A groundbreaking collection of abolitionist writing from throughout the history of American slavery<br></b><br>From the beginning of the transatlantic slave trade to the ambiguity of the reconstruction era, resistance and protest writing were a central part of slavery in America, and - ultimately - played a crucial role in its abolition. Placing well-known abolitionist writing alongside less celebrated and little-known accounts of everyday lives and activism, <i>Unsung </i>makes the case for focusing on the histories of black people as agents and architects of their own struggle and ultimate liberation.</p>
