About this listen

During the 1840s and 1850s, Henry Bibb became an important voice in Michigan’s growing abolitionist movement. Born into slavery in Kentucky, Bibb endured years of abuse, repeated attempts to escape, and the heartbreaking loss of his wife and daughter, who remained enslaved. After reaching Michigan, he shared his firsthand experiences with audiences across the state, helping expose the cruelty of slavery and strengthen support for abolition.
