The Horrible Gift of Freedom: Atlantic Slavery and the Representation of Emancipation - Race in the Atlantic World, 1700–1900
Marcus Wood
By taking a new look at the role of the visual arts in promoting the “great emancipation swindle,” Wood brings into the open the manner in which the slave power and its inheritors have single-mindedly focused on celebratory cultural myths that function to diminish both white culpability and black outrage.
