NOTES
Solomon Northup's narrative, Twelve Years a Slave, offers a powerful account of the experience of enslavement in the United States during the nineteenth century. Through Northup's firsthand perspective, readers are exposed to the brutal realities of life in captivity and its implications for African American freedom. The text is thus significant in that it provides an invaluable source of information on a previously under-examined period in American history
