Merely that their testimony is the best evidence we have of their feelings
about this lives in slavery vis-a-vis their lives at the time they were
interviewed. They don't speak for everyone, but they do speak for themselves.
I love the way historians like to take such first hand accounts and discount
the veracity of the interviewee to meet their intellectual and academic
point of view.
