?? What would you do if your life of freedom was stolen overnight? Twelve Years a Slave is the extraordinary true account of Solomon Northup, a free African American man living in New York, who was kidnapped in 1841 and sold into slavery. For twelve harrowing years, he endured unimaginable cruelty on Southern plantations before finally regaining his freedom. This powerful memoir is not only a story of survival but also an unflinching testimony to the brutal realities of slavery in America. With courage, dignity, and resilience, Northup exposes the injustice of human bondage while holding on to his faith in freedom and justice. Adapted into the Academy Award–winning film, this book remains one of the most important firsthand narratives of slavery ever written—essential reading for understanding history, injustice, and the indomitable strength of the human spirit.?
