    Non-fiction. Writing an extraordinary Black man back into our histories. Born a slave in Kentucky, William Gibson served in both the famous 54th Massachusetts Volunteer Infantry during the American Civil War under his alias John Saunders and as a Buffalo Soldier with the 10th United States Cavalry. As a boy, he self-emancipated and took the Underground Railroad to freedom and relative safety from the Refugee Slave Act of 1850 in Chatham, Canada West. He was the only member of his family to successfully seek freedom before the war. Hoping this non-fiction piece will inspire some excellent historical fiction. Please share with me if you get inspired! Footnotes: * My antiracist pro-Black vocabulary is a work in progress; feedback always appreciated! * Much gratitude is owed to American Origins, LLC who retrieved and photographed the military pension files that bring William and his family's words back to life, and to an anonymous friend who provided the fee for that work. * Cross-published to Academia.edu, Medium.com and Wattpad.com. * Black is capitalized throughout to denote the Black American ethnic group which exists due to the forced breeding and sexual violence of chattel slavery that blends ethnic identities from Africa, Indigenous American tribes, Europe, etc.

    Vala, the elder twin by mere minutes, stood as the protective shield between her naive sister Dotty and the cruel whims of their circus master, Mr. Mint. Behind his charming, eccentric facade, Mr. Mint hid a sinister nature, exploiting the sisters' talents for his own twisted desires. Vala's keen intuition always sensed the danger lurking beneath Mr. Mint's sugary smile, while Dotty's innocence made her vulnerable to his manipulations. But Vala's own world was now unraveling. Haunting nightmares and visions plagued her, featuring a mysterious twin who mirrored her and Dotty's identical features. The phantom twin's desperate cries for help echoed in Vala's mind, leaving her with an unsettling sense of foreboding. As Vala's grip on reality began to slip, her usually flawless contortionist performances suffered. She stumbled, lost focus, and made uncharacteristic mistakes. The pressure mounted, and Vala wondered: Was she losing her grip on sanity, or was something more sinister at play? With each passing night, the visions intensified. The unknown twin's pleas grew louder, more urgent. Vala became convinced that this mysterious sibling was in grave danger, and that their connection was more than just a product of her fevered imagination. Determined to unravel the mystery, Vala began to investigate the depths of Mr. Mint's twisted circus. She scoured the shadows, seeking answers to the questions swirling in her mind: Who was this phantom twin? What did she want from Vala? And what secrets lay hidden beneath the circus's glittering facade? As Vala delved deeper into the darkness, she risked exposing the very evil she sought to escape. Would she find the truth, or would Mr. Mint's sinister games consume her completely?

    This is a description of the 1850s which I had created as homework for my English lesson. It is familiar with Black Butler's concept, yet it doesn't exactly base itself off of the storyline, only the surroundings; wealth, and overall the Victorian times. I decided to post it here in hope that it may inspire others, or I can receive criticism to improve in the future, it may just be entertainment too. Thank you for reading!
