Description
Résumé:Long seen by writers as a vital political force of the nation, children's literature has been an important means not only of mythologizing a certain racialized past but also, because of its intended audience, of promoting a specific racialized future. Stories about slavery for children have served as primers for racial socialization. This study of slavery in children's literature historicizes the ways generations of authors have drawn upon antebellum literature in their own re-creations of slavery.
