Setting down the sacred past : African-American race histories

Maffly-Kipp, Laurie F. 1960- (author.).

Summary: As early as the 1780's, African Americans told stories that enabled them to survive and even thrive in the midst of unspeakable assault. Tracing previously unexplored narratives from the late eighteenth century to the 1920's, Laurie Maffly-Kipp brings to light an extraordinary trove of sweeping race histories that African Americans wove together out of racial and religious concerns.-publisher description.
