In the 1930s, the Works Progress Administration sponsored a Federal Writers' Project dedicated to chronicling the experience of slavery as remembered by former slaves. African-American men and women born into slavery were interviewed. Their stories were recorded and transcribed. If you would like to learn more about the Slave Narrative Project, read interview transcripts, listen to recordings of interviews, or see pictures of former slaves, check out these multimedia resources.
