Extractions: Frances Harper (1825 - 1911) Harper's novel about the Reconstructed South, Iola Leroy, or Shadows Uplifted (1892), was the first book published by a black American. Born of free parents and self-educated, Harper worked as a nursemaid, seamstress, needlework teacher, and writer. She produced ten volumes of poetry and many articles, along with her novel. Advocating women's rights as well as abolition, Harper lectured at the 1869 meeting of the Equal Rights Association. But when the schism occurred between abolitionists and feminists, she sided with Fredrick Douglass, who believed that the issue of race had priority over that of gender. Harper continued her work on behalf of black women, founding the National Association of Colored Women and serving as its vice president until her death.

Extractions: in full FRANCES ELLEN WATKINS HARPER (b. Sept. 24, 1825, Baltimore, Md., U.S.d. Feb. 22, 1911, Philadelphia, Pa.), African-American author, orator, and social reformer, notable for her poetry, speeches, and essays on abolitionism, temperance, and woman suffrage. Orphaned at an early age, Harper was educated in Baltimore, where she worked as a seamstress and published Forest Leaves c. 1845), her first volume of verse. She taught school from 1850 to 1852 in Columbus, Ohio, and from 1852 to 1853 in Little York, Pa., before becoming a traveling lecturer for abolition and other reform movements. Her lyrical poetry, which she often recited during her lectures, echoed her reformist ideals. Generally written in conventional rhymed quatrains, it was noted for its simple rhythm and biblical imagery. Its narrative voice reflected the storytelling style of the oral tradition. Harper's most popular verse collection, Poems on Miscellaneous Subjects (1854; enlarged 1855 and 1871), addresses the themes of motherhood, separation and death, and politics. It contains the antislavery poem "Bury Me in a Free Land." Moses: A Story of the Nile (1869) is a blank-verse allegory of the aspirations of black Americans during Reconstruction.

Extractions: (1825-1911), lecturer, author, and reformer Born in Baltimore, Maryland, on September 24, 1825, Frances Watkins was the daughter of free black parents. She grew up in the home of an uncle whose school for black children she attended. At age 13 she went to work as a domestic in a Baltimore household but continued her education on her own. About 1845 she published a collection of verses and prose writings under the title Forest Leaves. During 1850-52 she taught sewing at Union Seminary, a work-study school operated by the African Methodist Episcopal Church near Columbus, Ohio. Later she taught in Little York, Pennsylvania. The rising heat of the abolitionist controversy and the consequent increasing stringency of slave laws in Southern and border states at length drew her into the public arena. In August 1854 in New Bedford, Massachusetts, she delivered a public address on "Education and the Elevation of the Colored Race." Her success there led to a two-year lecture tour in Maine for the state Anti-Slavery Society, and from 1856 to 1860 she spoke throughout the East and Midwest. In addition to her antislavery lecturing she read frequently from her second book, Poems on Miscellaneous Subjects (1854), which was quite successful and was several times enlarged and reissued. It addressed the subjects of motherhood, separation, and death and contained the antislavery poem "Bury Me in a Free Land." Generally written in conventional rhymed quatrains, her poetry was noted for its simple rhythm and biblical imagery. Its narrative voice reflected the storytelling style of the oral tradition. She also contributed to various periodicals; her story "The Two Offers" in the
