Aprašymas
Legacies of Slavery commemorates a story of racial reconciliation in the South. The writers, educators, and friends Frye Gaillard and Myra Davis-Branic had discovered a shared family history of slavery in Eutawville, North Carolina. Davis-Branic's family was enslaved by Gaillard's family.
In 2024, the University of South Alabama's Kern Jackson moderated three conversations with Davis-Branic and Gaillard in Mobile. These conversations are presented here in an edited format. Davis-Branic and Gaillard discussed their entwined family history and what they each learned from research into their ancestors.
Legacies of Slavery stands as a powerful and unique documentation for all who are interested in how two southern families, bound by slavery in the past and now by friendship and a degree of understanding, have found some measure of redemption.
