Paper Summary:

Slavery in America created a legacy that has been both troubling and poignant. For instance many of the tensions which exist between African-Americans and White Americans today are the result of this legacy.. At the same time there were individual acts of heroism by slaves and by their sympathizers which have been fortunately captured for posterity. For having the ability to endure in a world that was not entirely congenial to them, both Phyllis Wheatley and Harriet Jacobs deserve enormous respect. This paper discusses the important similarities and differences between these two historical African-American figures.
