Mary Prince

    Mary Princes Autobiografie, veröffentlicht im Jahr 1831, ist der erste Lebensbericht einer schwarzen Frau, der im Vereinigten Königreich publiziert wurde. Diese Ich-Erzählung über die Brutalität der Sklaverei erschien zu einer Zeit, als die Sklaverei in den britischen Kolonien noch legal war. Ihre Veröffentlichung hatte eine belebende Wirkung auf die Anti-Sklaverei-Bewegung und erlebte im ersten Jahr drei Neuauflagen. Princes eindringliches Zeugnis bot eine entscheidende Perspektive auf die Unmenschlichkeit des Systems.
