Description
1881 1st/1st Uncle Remus Songs & Sayings Harris Slavery Song of South Americana



Brer Rabbit and crew are the basis and inspiration for Disneys black folklore, controversial tale “Song of the South” and popular attraction Splash Mountain!



Uncle Remus by Joel C. Harris defines many of the stereotypes of the African American people, including dialect and slavery themes. Harris himself said that Uncle Remus was

a sympathetic supplement to Stowes wonderful defense of slavery as it existed in the South. [She] attacked the possibilities of slavery with all the eloquence of genius, but the same genius painted the portrait of the Southern slave-owner and defended him. (Bernstein, 2011).



This 1881 first edition, first printing is considered rare and very valuable! See edition note below.
