In 1911, William Pickens published the first edition of his
autobiography, The Heir of Slaves, in which he writes about the
importance of his education and recounts the experiences that led
him into public life. The narrative discusses his family, the
various teachers and mentors who helped guide him, and the
incidents and methods by which he accomplished so much. Pickens's
later works increasingly demanded the rights of full citizenship
for African Americans. Bursting Bonds (1923), the second edition of
his autobiography, clearly demonstrates this development by the
inclusion of five new chapters on racial tensions. This important
work, now back in print, marks a turning point in the evolution of
African American autobiography from defence to confrontation.
