Adventures of High John the Conqueror (American Storytelling)
Steve Sanfield
High John the Conqueror sometimes called simply High John or John is a slave trickster who always outwits Old Master. Much like Greek slave Aesop's animal characters, High John was the subject of subversive narrative, whose mission was to outsmart his oppressors. Tales of High John flourished during slavery, but after emancipation they fell out of circulation and his antics were all but forgotten.
