Unburdened By Conscience: A Black People's Collective Account of America's Ante-Bellum South and the Aftermath

By Anthony W. Neal

Book Overview

This new and expanded third edition forcefully argues that influential historians have offered an incomplete account of antebellum-era American slavery because they are preoccupied with humanizing slaveholders. Skillfully weaving together firsthand accounts of ex-slaves, Neal permits the reader to see slavery in the United States from their point of view.
