Bullwhip Days

Bullwhip Days features 29 full narrations and additional excerpts from oral histories of former slaves commissioned by the Works Progress Administration in the 1930s. The collection offers an unvarnished look at various aspects of slave life, from religion to plantation conditions, and provides valuable insights into the history and roots of racism in America. Skillfully edited, these recordings serve as a powerful record of the experiences and struggles of enslaved individuals.
