Résumé
Please note: This audiobook has been created using AI voice.
In 1841, Solomon Northup was a free black man, married with three children and living in upstate New York, when he was tricked into going to Washington DC. There, he was drugged, kidnapped, and sold into slavery, eventually ending up on a plantation in the Red River area of Louisiana. For twelve years he experienced and witnessed the arbitrary beatings and whippings, aroundtheclock backbreaking work, and countless other degradations that came with being enslaved in the antebellum south.
Through the sympathetic ear of a white man and with miraculous timing, he was eventually freed and returned home. He then wrote this memoir and contributed to the abolitionist movement before disappearing from the pages of history. Like Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl, Twelve Years a Slave stands in stark contrast to the era's bucolic propaganda that the enslaved in the south were well treated, well provided for, and made "part of the family." As a firsthand account, it exposes slavery for what it is: barbaric, dehumanizing, and evil.
