The novella, The Conjure Woman, penned by Charles W. Chesnutt, is a groundbreaking work of African-American literature that explores the intersections between folklore and race within a post-Reconstruction Southern context. Through its utilization of both vernacular dialect and literary convention, the text makes evident the culturally situated nature of storytelling within an oppressive racial paradigm.
