African American Folk Tales
Folk tales from African Americans originated during their time of being enslaved during the 1600s-1900s. There are many reoccurring themes in these stories.
These tales often fall into 7 categories. Tales of origin, tales of trickery and trouble, tales of triumph over evil, comic heartwarming tales, tales of teaching life lessons, tales of ghosts and spirits, and tales of slavery.
These stories gave hope to the people that they could outsmart those who oppressed them and be liberated from slavery
This day in Black history.
On February 11th 1644 the first Black legal protest in America pressed by 11 African Americans occurred.
These people petitioned for freedom in New Netherlands which is now known as New York. New York declared these 11 people to be free since they had served for 18 years and the company had "long since promised their freedom"
On February 11th 1958 Ruth Taylor became the first African American flight attendant in the United States. Her aims were to break the color barrier restricting Black Americans from the job. After joining, others were able to become flight attendants as well.
Many more things happened on this day but we will leave it here.
