About this listen

Rod Brown and Julius Lester bring history to life, in this profoundly moving exploration of the slave experience. From the Middle Passage to the auction block, from the whipping post to the fight for freedom, this audiobook presents not just historical facts, but the raw emotions of the people who lived them.

Inspired by Rod Brown's vivid paintings, Julius Lester has written a story that places each of us squarely inside the skin of both slave and slave owner. It will capture the heart of every listener, black or white, young or old.

An ALA best book for young adults.

An NCSS-CBC notable children's trade book in the field of social studies.

A Booklist editors' choice book.
