|
Benjamin Holmes, a young slave apprenticed to a tailor in
Charleston, South Carolina, practices reading every chance he gets, a
skill that comes in handy when his employer leaves town and he is put
in a slave prison where his fellow inmates listen as he reads aloud
the news of President Lincoln's Emancipation Proclamation.
