I couldn't put it down. I got angry in some places and laughed at others. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome *by M***E on Reviewed in the United States on March 29, 2023* Great book to read ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars Very enlightening *by R***L on Reviewed in the United States on February 26, 2019* I think this should be a must-read for everyone, even in schools. There's nothing quite like hearing about an era and such a horrid time as the years and years of slavery but from the horse's mouth. Some of the stories are incredible, sorrowful, infuriating and unbelievable. How the white man could treat the black slaves in the manner that some of them did is so disheartening and shameful. I'm half ashamed to say I'm white after reading this. I find it interesting how some of the slaves liked being left to live on their master's property after they were freed. They had nothing after they were freed, no food, shelter, money and were intimidated into not voting. Living and working as sharecroppers at least gave them something small to live off of and be able to eat and have clothing. Of course, not all white plantation or farmers were as fair as others. Many black people were cheated out of their earnings.This is not an easy read for two very different reasons. The first is that to read how some of these slaves were treated is so very difficult, I had tears in my eyes and felt shame for what was brought upon these people. The second reason is that this book's narration is written in the way the people interviewed actually talked, their dialect. This makes it a slower read. Some words are tough to make out.Something to think about is that these former slaves were still living during the 1930s and 40s. My father was born in 1928, my mother in 1932. I never thought of former slaves being alive in that era. That doesn't make it all so far removed. I was born in 1963. My great great grandfather was born around the time of the Civil War. I find that a bit amazing! That's not that many generations ago for me. Things were so difficult for the black man after the war and continued and still continues to be hard. I think people need to sit and contemplate these things.I do recommend this book,but it does need an editor, not for the words of the former slaves, but for non-use of apostrophes in possessive words, spacing issues, colons appearing at odd places and such. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/5571967-bullwhip-days-the-slaves-remember-an-oral-history](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/5571967-bullwhip-days-the-slaves-remember-an-oral-history) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-06-01*
