The Royall House & Slave Quarters welcomes interdisciplinary artist Ifé Franklin, who will read from her powerful new book “The Slave Narrative of Willie Mae.” Franklin wrote the book in the voice of her great-grandmother, Willie Mae McCain, who was born in Virginia on the threshold of emancipation. The narrative brings to life Willie Mae’s journey from enslavement to freedom. Her reading will include time for an audience Q&A, and copies of the book will be available for purchase and signing.
