Description:

Noel Rae discusses his latest book The Great Stain: Witnessing American Slavery. He integrates firsthand accounts into a narrative history that brings the reader face to face with slavery’s everyday reality, expertly weaving together narratives that span hundreds of years. Drawing on thousands of original sources, Rae tells of repression and resistance in a society based on the exploitation of the cheapest labor and fallacies of racial superiority.
