This story was inspired by numerous biographies, autobiographies and speeches of ex-slaves. The title of this story is a poem by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow. Additionally, since this a story of a slave’s life told from a slave’s POV, some of the dialogue will contain the “N-word” and Creole of the South. This story is dedicated to those
