Leslie M. Harris is associate professor of history at Emory University.
"The black experience in the antebellum South has been thoroughly documented. But histories set in the North are few. In the Shadow of Slavery, then, is a big and ambitious book, one in which insights about race and class in New York City abound. Leslie M. Harris has masterfully brought over two centuries of African American history back to life in this illuminating new work." - David Roediger, author of The Wages of Whiteness
