Descubre la conmovedora historia de Oluale Kossola, también conocido como Cudjo Lewis, el último superviviente del comercio de esclavos. En 'Barracoon', Zora Neale Hurston captura el relato de Kossola, quien fue capturado en Benín y transportado a América en 1860. A través de sus palabras, somos testigos de su vida como esclavo en Alabama, su búsqueda de identidad y sus raíces en una sociedad marcada por el racismo. Este testimonio, inédito durante 90 años, ofrece una visión auténtica y conmovedora de un capítulo oscuro de la historia americana.

Zora Neale Hurston was an American writer, anthropologist, folklorist, and documentary filmmaker. She portrayed racial struggles in the early-20th-century American South and published research on Hoodoo and Caribbean Vodou. The most popular of her four novels is Their Eyes Were Watching God, published in 1937. She also wrote more than 50 short stories, plays, an autobiography, ethnographies, and many essays. Some of her work, namely Tell My Horse (1937), explored ethnomusicological methods of study long before there were formal boundaries for the discipline, especially not boundaries that included the respectful study of communities of color. Hurston's unique background and exceptional approach to anthropology laid key foundations for the growth of ethnography, literature, and Africana Studies.
