The Museum of the African Diaspora (San Francisco) features a marvelous online exhibit of Slave Narratives. The exhibit features introductions by Maya Angelou, with actors providing readings from the actual narratives. The site includes transcripts and good resources. Beautifully laid out, Slave Narratives uses interesting Flash technology. (A non-Flash version of the website is available, too.)
nHumanities is the web log of the Humanities Division at Northwest College (Powell, Wyoming).
