Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Narrative of Sojourner Truth, a Northern Slave: Emancipated From Bodily Servitude by the State of New York, in 1828 The following is the unpretending narrative of the life of a remarkable and meritorious woman - a life which has been checkered by strange vicissitudes, severe hardships, and singular adventures. Born a slave, and held in that brutal condition until the entire abolition of slavery in the State of New York in 1827, she has known what it is to drink to the dregs the bitterest cup of human degradation. That one thus placed on a level with cattle and swine, and for so many years subjected to the most demoralizing influences, should have retained her moral integrity to such an extent, and cherished so successfully the religious sentiment in her soul, shows a mind of no common order, while it heightens the detestation that is felt in every human bosom, of that system of oppression which seeks to cripple the intellect, impair the understanding, and deprave the hearts of its victims - a system which has subjected to its own foul purposes, in the United States, all that is wealthy, talented, influential, and reputedly pious, in an overwhelming measure!
