Trouble in Mind:
Black Southerners in the Age of Jim Crow
Been in the Storm So Long: The Aftermath of Slavery
BEEN IN THE STORM SO LONG
The Aftermath of Slavery
Based on hitherto unexamined sources—interviews with ex-slaves, and diaries and accounts by former slaveholders— this “rich and admirably written book”
(The New York Times Book Review)
aims to show how, during the Civil War and after Emancipation, blacks and whites interacted in ways that dramatized not only their mutual dependency but the frightening ambiguities and tensions that had always been latent in “the peculiar institution.”

TROUBLE IN MIND
Black Southerners in the Age of Jim Crow
In
Trouble in Mind
, Leon Litwack constructs a searing history of life under Jim Crow. Drawing on new documentation and first-person accounts by blacks and whites, he describes the injustices—both institutional and personal—inflicted against a people. Here, too, are the black men and women whose activism, literature, and music preserved the genius of their human spirit. Painstakingly researched, important, and timely,
Trouble in Mind
recalls the bloodiest and most repressive period in the history of race relations in the United States—and the painful record of discrimination that haunts us to this day.
