Naturally I was not around to photograph these historical slave pictures, so here is where my own American journey starts. I had thought that slavery was far back in history, but when I hitchhiked around Florida I met the 134-year old Charles Smith who remembered vividly the good life before he was enslaved and told me about it on my tape recorder.






Charles Smith: I came to the United States when I was only 12 years old.
Jacob Holdt: Were you sold as a slave to the States?



- Yeah, let me tell you now. When I came to the USA, people were sold.That was in slavery time. They brought me from Africa.



I asked my mama, could I go down to the boat and see that man.She said yeah, and I ain't seen my mama since. And I wasn't but 12 years old.


People got on the boat to see "sugar trees". Men, women and children... "Come on down here in the hatch holes!" Surely they wanted to show us something down there.


^^Là,c'est un entretien qui a été fait lorsque Charlie Smith avait 134ans,ici je met l'interview loorsqu'il avait 130ans:

Charlie Smith, Age 130



"The highest bidder gets you. He'll carry [you to (?)] his plantation. Put another one up there. Me highest bid, which ever one bid, gives the most, he'll carry him to his plant, that the white, in the South. And they went to mistreating the, the colored. Getting children by the colored women. And all such as that, getting colored. And the white find it out, how they was treating them. They hurt them. And they come down here, the first war ever was in the United State was the North and South fought a war to free the colored."

Vous pouver lire et écouter sur Real Player les interviews d'anciens esclaves des Etats-Unis:

http://memory.loc.gov/ammem/collections/voices/vfssp.html#FountainHughes.html

Fountain Hughes, Age 101


Fountain Hughes, circa 1952. Photograph courtesy of The Jeffersonian newspaper, Towson, Maryland.

"You wasn't no more than a dog to some of them in them days. You wasn't treated as good as they treat dogs now. But still I didn't like to talk about it. Because it makes, makes people feel bad you know. Uh, I, I could say a whole lot I don't like to say. And I won't say a whole lot more."



George Johnson, Age Unknown



"I got my name from President Jeff Davis. He was president of the Southern Confederacy. He owned my grandfather and my father. Brought them from Richmond, Virginia."

Uncle Bob Ledbetter, Age 72 or 73

"Yes sir, I know what's right and I tried my best to do what's right in everything I do."




Isom Moseley, Age 88



"Well now, they tell me it was a, a year before the folks knowed that, uh, they was free. And when they found out they was free, they worked on shares, they tell me. Worked on shares, didn't rent no land, they worked on shares. Now you know I was a boy, I'm about explaining to the best of my understanding. They say they worked on shares. I think they said it was, was it fourth, or third I think. They got the third, I think they say, what they made,??? after surrender."


Uncle Billy McCrea, Age 89



"And I remember and the Yankees stop here, and the Yankees stop right here on the courthouse square. I was a good size boy then. And then what they call Freedman Bureau, you hear tell of it ain't you? And they prosecuting people you know, what they do, you know, and all like that, and I mean just as hard as they could. I've seen two mens they had they were punishing for what they do."




Wallace Quarterman, Age 87



"And he call me and told me to run down in the field and tell Peter to turn the people loose, that the Yankee coming. And so I run down in the field and, and whooped and holler, they done, he done told them Mr. [Gaeggles (?)] said turn the people loose because the Yankee coming."
