Fountain Hughes - Voices from the Days of Slavery

Fountain Hughes (age 101 at the time of this interview) recalls his younger years when he and his family lived as slaves as well as some good advice on how to spend money. Worth listening to.

first 2 mins in this video, he's teaching the black man and woman about credit and to stay away from it all together. Powerful.

[@ManPursueExcellence]

Erik Brown It was amazing because I would have not thought so many of us were in debt, back in those days the interview was taken.

[@smo-lo]

Americans of all kinds are in debt. A relative of mine went through the great depression as a child. Had 5 other siblings, and didn't know one another. Their mother couldn't afford to keep them together. Some didn't see each other for more that 20 years. One of them is my grandfather and he speaks of buying on time in the same manner. So I believe the gentleman in this video is speaking from experience, on the matter of credit. It wasn't directed to any particular "race".

[@opensprings]

@@ManPursueExcellence Don't forget sharecropping. That put a lot of black folks in debt

[@ManPursueExcellence]

Errol Hmm, I wasn’t aware of that. I’ll have to look back at sharecroppers.

[@neljay9149]

He was talking about debt bondage. A legal form of slavery (now viewed as a form of slavery and banned under human rights) that bounded blacks to their former slavers. The slaver would loan the former slave cash in exchange for services and keep raising interest even if they met their obligations which meant they were never paid. This kept them in debt forever and bound to the former plantations. He was a very smart man for not doing this.

[@pinfold1000]

[@willie417]

they said that Hughes died in 1957, yes 1957, this took place in 1949, so there are Black people living today that knew people that was slaves and they were doing these interviews starting in the late 30's so the next time somebody tell you it happen a long time ago, let them know that they did interviews that are less than 100 years ago with living Slaves.

As I listen to this noble old elder tell his story. What stands out in my mind is not his clear presence of mind at 101 years old. It's not the fascination of hearing an enslaved person tell his story first hand. It's not the rare privilege of traversing back in time. As I listen to this Elder,I'm in awe at how ruthless and savage,how low and despicable,how hate worthy his en-slavers were and still are.

I have been playing Fountain Hughes' audio to my classes for years. If you think this is good, go to the Library of Congress' WPA recordings of many more former slaves. It is so amazing to actually HEAR former slaves talk about their lives.From a historical and humanity perspective, it is so rich. From a linguistic point of view, it is fascinating, too.

[@opensprings]

Interesting how the African-American accent in Virginia has shifted over the generations

[@cowart73]

Yes! I saw a documentary that said it was because of the northern migration from the rural south and the segregation into ghettos in the north. The invariant be developed that way, some linguists say. It is so interesting how language changes.

[@opensprings]

At 1:00 he says, "It is yourn". At 2:42 he says, "And then the rest of the money is yourn." That word 'yourn' is a colloquial for 'yours' and is also used in the Bahamas to this day, e.g. "That's yourn" or "That's yourns"

[@cowart73]

I wonder if that is an African language aspect? The Appalachians have "you ins" and "yins" in their vernacular. I wonder if it is similar? Let me know if you find any good documentaries.

I loved that man like he was my own grandfather & his wife was the same way they had 5 children & too many grandchildren to count... One day i was sitting on the couch in their front room & there was a picture oval shape on his floor model tv & i ask him who those ppl were in the photo he said they were his grandparents his grandfather died at the age of 120 & his grandma at 118. these were ppl who didnt waste nothing & lived off the land chewed tobacco half irish half indian...

Romans from antiquity had slaves, Egyptians, and now modern day middle eastern countries had slaves, amongst many other regions. Sighs.....I just wish that North Americans would have not continued with this and done better, it really angers and upsets me.

[@koko4u2luv]

Are you Canadian by any chance?

[@godschildyes]

We all know this. Yet 400 years of slavery for a people is extremely profound however, and worth never forgetting. It's never wise to downplay a people's suffering no matter how subtly it's done, especially when they want to remember their ancestors. Just because other people went through slavery throughout history does not mean there's anything wrong with focusing on the subject at hand. It's also important to remember this so it is Never Repeated Again!
