Literary Works

The Meek-Eaton Southeastern Regional Black Archives Research Center and Museum houses a distinguished collection of literary works from the 17th to 19th centuries, offering profound insights into the era of slavery. Meticulously sourced and curated by the museum's founder and first director, Dr. James N. Eaton Sr., publications were instrumental in shaping American awareness of slavery by offering vivid, accessible, and often deeply personal accounts of its realities.
