The People Could Fly

Written by Virginia Hamilton

Long ago in Africa, it is said some of the poeple knew magic that enabled them to fly. But when they were brought to America as slaves, they forgot the magic. All but one old man. When he could tolerate no longer the suffering of his people, he whispered the magic words and, one by one and then in flocks, the slaves rose up and flew to freedom.
