Our Nig
by Harriet E. Wilson (1859)
The first novel written by an African American woman, Our Nig focuses on the fictional character Frado and her servant-girl life in New England during antebellum slavery. Her journey mirrors that of creator Harriet E. Wilson, whose work was rediscovered by Dr. Henry Louis Gates Jr. more than 100 years later.
