Title |
African-American journeying : a trope of resistance, identity, revolution, and voice in the quest for wholenes |
Date |
1990 |
Description |
Over one hundred years after President Abraham Lincoln called for the Emancipation of American slaves, modern black American writers and critics are still talking about slavery as though it is a condition of limitation from which African-Americans have yet to be set free. Is slavery a metaphor that today describes the African-American experience? If so, how has an on-going legacy of slavery shaped the African-American literary tradition? |
