About this book
Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl by Harriet A. Jacobs is a seminal text in African American literature in its exploration of the slave experience from a female point of view. The work offers an intimate and direct account of how oppression, racism, and sexism shaped the life of one individual but can be extrapolated to encompass the experiences of enslaved African Americans as a whole.
