5.0 out of 5 stars Interviews of Ex-Enslaved Persons by African Americans, January 3, 2006

This review is from: Weevils in the Wheat: Interviews with Virginia Ex-Slaves (Paperback)
One of the great advantages of the Virginia slave interviews was that over 90% of the interviewers were African Americans. As the ex-enslaved persons themselves noted, they would and could be much more honest, even 70 years after Emancipation, with their fellow African Americans then they ever could be with White interviewers. This text contains hundreds of such interviews that provide graphic details of life during and after slavery.

Reviewer: Bob Kellemen, Ph.D., is the author of "Beyond the Suffering: Embracing the Legacy of African American Soul Care and Spiritual Direction." He has also authored "Soul Physicians," "Spiritual Friends," and the forthcoming "Sacred Friendships: Listening to the Voices of Women Soul Care-Givers and Spiritual Directors."
