Twelve Years A Slave
Very powerful!
This was an excellent literary piece of work. It appeared to accurately depict the life of a slave in the South describing the atrocities that beheld him.

12 years a Slave
Explicit details of the cruel, degrading life as a slave, told by a freeman sold into slavery. Truly an eye opener.
