Sam and Ninny come to the horrifying realization that their lives are in jeopardy, and they must escape this Virginian plantation at once. ‘Masquerade, A Story of the Old South’ is an uncommon slave narrative, capturing the experience of both African Americans and gay people during this complicated time.
