520 In 1927, Zora Neale Hurston went to Plateau, Alabama, just
outside Mobile, to interview eighty-six-year-old Cudjo
Lewis. Of the millions of men, women, and children
transported from Africa to America as slaves, Cudjo was
then the only person alive to tell the story of this
integral part of the nation's history. Hurston was there
to record Cudjo's firsthand account of the raid that led
to his capture and bondage fifty years after the Atlantic
slave trade was outlawed in the United States. In 1931,
Hurston returned to Plateau, the African-centric community
three miles from Mobile founded by Cudjo and other former
slaves from his ship. Spending more than three months
there, she talked in depth with Cudjo about the details of
his life. During those weeks, the young writer and the
elderly formerly enslaved man ate peaches and watermelon
that grew in the backyard and talked about Cudjo's past--
memories from his childhood in Africa, the horrors of
being captured and held in a barracoon for selection by
American slavers, the harrowing experience of the Middle
Passage packed with more than 100 other souls aboard the
Clotilda, and the years he spent in slavery until the end
of the Civil War. Based on those interviews, featuring
Cudjo's unique vernacular, and written from Hurston's
perspective with the compassion and singular style that
have made her one of the preeminent American authors of
the twentieth-century, Barracoon masterfully illustrates
the tragedy of slavery and of one life forever defined by
it. Offering insight into the pernicious legacy that
continues to haunt us all, black and white, this poignant
and powerful work is an invaluable contribution to our
shared history and culture.--Publisher's website.
