Click here to watch a video review of this book on my channel, from start to finish. In July 1828, Mrs. Fairchild sold her estate after her husband’s death. The sale of his estate includes the appraisal and auction of eleven slaves, listed with clear terms, along with the sale price on the original document purchased by the author. With a colorful collage of past history and the use of free verse, the author imagines beautiful but tragic stories for all eleven people who no doubt dream of becoming more than objects sold at auction. Freedom Over Me is honest in its depiction of the brutal cruelty of slavery and the heartless dehumanization of others that was a common practice in pre-abolition America. Strolling through the plantation forest reminded me of the forest back home in Africa. I often think back to the day our village was invaded. My father was killed, my mother and I were captured, sold to white slaves. My mother and I survived the terrifying transition to America. So many others died, crushed in the filthy grip of the ship. One day robbers attacked our village. My parents were killed fighting to protect me. I was captured, enslaved in America. I stand naked, sold on the auction block. Each of the eleven slaves is presented separately, first as a slave with a position on Mrs. Fairchild’s estate, then as a cheerful and free person who was in Africa before slavery was imposed on them. On pages shown as slaves, the background color is muted and pale. On the next page, where you can see their memories of Africa, the colors are bright and bold. It’s a subtle but effective way to further emphasize the splendor of African freedom compared to the bleak life of a slave in America. Teaching slaves to read is a crime. Secretly, Jane and I taught each other to read, with the help of my hidden Bible. Slave owners thought that reading would give us the idea of ​​freedom. Whether we can read or not, we all want to be free. the document on which the slave’s name is written appears twice in the book. It was easy to miss the first time, as the paper was water-damaged and worn with flowing, hard-to-read cursive writing. The second time is near the end of the book, where it sits conveniently next to the typed copy for easy reading. Freedom Over Me goes beyond fictional characters to introduce young readers to tragedies in American history. Although the author imagines their stories, Peggy Atelia, Betty, Cush, Jane, Stephen, Mulvina, Backus, Charlotte and Dora* become real and therefore will be remembered. We will never lose hope that one day we will live free. *Note: This book describes the story of eleven slaves, but only ten are listed in the document. The eleventh servant, John, is not named, but is included in the writer’s imagination. Dora’s name is also fictitious; she is listed next to Charlotte as nothing more than a “child”. … More

Who gives voice to the voiceless? What are your qualifications when doing this? When I was a teenager, I used to go to antique stores and buy old family photos from the turn of the century. It still seems strange to me that this is allowed. I would find the people who looked the most interesting, like they had a story to tell, and take them home with me. Then I will write something about their story, although mostly I like watching them. It is strangely comforting to see the faces of passers-by. Who gives voice to the voiceless?

Then I will write something about their story, although mostly I like watching them. It’s strangely comforting to see the faces of the modern dead. A little touch of momento mori mixed with the realization that you yourself are young (maybe) and still alive (maybe). It’s easy to speculate about life when you can see the person’s face and see them in their Sunday best. It’s even harder when you don’t have a face, a name tag and/or maybe just an age. Add to that the idea that the person concerned lived through a man who became hell on earth. When author/illustrator/artist Ashley Bryan acquired a collection of documents related to slaves from the 1920s to the 1960s, she had many untold stories on her hands. And when he decided to give life, honor and peace to these people, swallowed by history, he did it only with his ability. With light, laughter and beauty that only he could find in the depths of incredible pain. My freedom is a work of courage and reason. A way to deal with the unimaginable, to allow children to understand that behind every body, living or dead, in human history there is a mind, a heart and a soul. Fairchilds valuation date is July 5, 1828. In it you will find a list of goods for sale. Cows, pigs, cotton. . . and Eleven people, more precisely (and us). Most of them have names. one does not. Just a name on a piece of paper almost 200 years old. So Ashley Bryan took these names and these people, and for the first time in hundreds of years we met them. This is Atlia, the cleaner who once bore the name Adro. On one page we hear about his life. Next, the dream. He remembers the village where he grew up, stories and songs. And he is not alone in this. As we get to know each person and learn what they do, we get a glimpse of their dreams. We hear their hopes. We wonder about their lives. We see them drawing strength from each other. And finally? The sales page is located there. Last words: “Stay
