About this Item
Description:
1897 1ed Kemble Blackberries Adventures African American Caricatures RACISM E.W. Kemble was a 19th-century American illustrator who is best known for his sketches of black culture and African American men and women. The Blackberries and their Adventures is a collection of illustrations depicting black children (i.e. blackberries ) playing games and dancing. The book, intended for children, was written with significant racist views that would not be considered tolerable today; yet, this book does represent a culture reminiscent of a bygone American era.
