As early as the 1780s, African Americans told stories that enabled them to survive and even thrive in the midst of unspeakable assault. Tracing the narratives from the late eighteenth century to the 1920s, this work presents an extraordinary trove of sweeping race histories that African Americans wove together out of racial and religious concerns.
