Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For the first time, the WPA Slave Narratives are organized by theme, making it easier to examine—and understand—specific aspects of slave life and culture. There is no better way to appreciate history than to experience it through the eyes of those who lived it. Slave Culture: A Documentary Collection of the Slave Narratives from the Federal Writers' Project brings together the memories of the last generation of enslaved African Americans gathered through interviews conducted between 1936 and 1938. This three-volume work stands apart from previous Slave Narrative collections in that it organizes the narratives thematically, bringing the rich tapestry of slave culture to life in a fresh way. Within each thematic area, multiple excerpts span time, gender, and geography. An introductory essay for each theme and a contextual explanation for each narrative help readers draw lessons from this vast collection, while an introduction to the work explains the Works Progress Administration's Slave Narrative project—illuminating still another era in American history.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Florida Slave narratives are a unique volume of slave narratives collected by the Federal Works Progress Administration from 1936-1938. What makes these specific collected interviews from former slaves in Florida unique is the fact that some of the interviewers were of African American decent. The American Guide, or the Negro Writers' Unit were some of the few black interviewers that interviewed ex-slaves. The majority of the interviewers were white. Thereby, historians have contended that the former slaves who were interviewed by white interviewers may not have been honest or as forthcoming as compared to when being interviewed by someone of the same race.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1935, the United States Congress began employing large numbers of American artists through the Works Progress Administration--fiction writers, photographers, poster artists, dramatists, painters, sculptors, muralists, wood carvers, composers and choreographers, as well as journalists, historians and researchers. Secretary of Commerce and supervisor of the WPA Harry Hopkins hailed it a "renascence of the arts, if we can call it a rebirth when it has no precedent in our history." Women were eminently involved, creating a wide variety of art and craft, interweaving their own stories with those of other women whose lives might not otherwise have received attention. This book surveys the thousands of women artists who worked for the U.S. government, the historical and social worlds they described and the collaborative depiction of womanhood they created at a pivotal moment in American history.
