Beyond Slavery’s Shadow: Free People of Color in the South

Beyond Slavery’s Shadow examines free People of Color in the South, combining Warren Eugene Milteer Jr's clear narrative with the perspective of a historical account. The narrative identifies the people, decisions, and pressures that shaped the subject, then places those developments within the connected fields of history and social science. Specific examples keep the larger argument tangible and reveal why familiar explanations do not always account for the full story. What emerges is a nuanced account of the subject, its immediate consequences, and its wider meaning.
