A proposito di questo titolo

 In Thirty Years A Slave, Louis Hughes recounts his harrowing experience as a slave born near Charlottesville, Virginia, to a white father and a black enslaved mother. Serving primarily as a house servant, Hughes gained unique insight into the inner workings of the McGee cotton plantation and the McGee mansion in Tennessee. His vivid and poignant descriptions reveal the harsh realities faced by countless slaves who endured suffering and brutal punishments at the hands of Boss and his cruelly erratic wife. Through his narrative, Hughes not only sheds light on the dehumanizing effects of slavery on black individuals but also on the white oppressors themselves. Ultimately, Thirty Years A Slave is a powerful testament to Hughes’s commitment to portraying the profound impact of slavery on American society, both during its existence and in the aftermath of the Civil War and the 14th Amendment.Copyright Biographies 2.0 Mondiale Scienza Scienze sociali
