Synopsis Wake: The Hidden History of Women-Led Slave Revolts
Part graphic novel, part memoir, Wake is an imaginative tour-de-force that tells the story of women-led slave revolts and chronicles scholar Rebecca Hall?s efforts to uncover the truth about these women warriors who, until now, have been left out of the historical record.Women warriors planned and led slave revolts on slave ships during the Middle Passage. They fought their enslavers throughout the Americas. And then they were erased from history.Wake tells the story of Dr. Rebecca Hall, a historian, granddaughter of slaves, and a woman haunted by the legacy of slavery. The accepted history of slave revolts has always told her that enslaved women took a back seat. But Rebecca decides to look deeper, and her journey takes her through old court records, slave ship captain?s logs, crumbling correspondence, and even the forensic evidence from the bones of enslaved women from the ?negro burying ground? uncovered in Manhattan. She finds women warriors everywhere.Using in-depth archival
