The Old African by Julius Lester
The Story of Toussaint L'Ouverture
An elderly African who once endured enslavement returns to lead others to liberty, using songs, stories, and a secret knowledge of the land and river to guide fleeing people to safety; the narrative blends oral tradition and lyrical language to celebrate courage, communal memory, and the quiet power of one person’s wisdom in the struggle for freedom.
