Reading Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl | Alexandria
Read Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl by Linda Brent. Escaping slavery through hiding in a tiny attic for 7 years, Linda Brent chose extreme confinement over sexual exploitation - revealing how women uniquely suffered under slavery. Her memoir shatters assumptions by showing how "freedom" meant trading physical chains for crushing psychological ones, as she watched her children grow up from a cramped crawl space.
