520 A compilation of 12 first-person accounts of the runaway
slave phenomenon spanning eight decades. Told in the
voices of the runaway slaves themselves, these narratives
reveal the extraordinary and often innovative ways that
these men and women sought freedom and demanded
citizenship. Also included is an essay by UCLA history
professor Brenda Stevenson that contextualizes these
narratives, as well as a look into the daily life of a
slave. Divided into four categories--running away for
family, running inspired by religion, running by any means
necessary, and running to be free-these stories are a
testament to the indelible spirit of these remarkable
survivors.
