Ol' Man Adam an' His Chillun is a collection of pseudo-African American folk tales written by author Roark Bradford and published in the United Kingdom and the United States in 1928. It was compared to the tales about Uncle Remus and had moderate success. Poet Sterling Brown criticized the way it depicted African Americans. At the time of his death, Bradford’s writings were very popular. Since the 1940s, however, much of his body of work has been reevaluated. Many criticize his work (as a white author) as patronizing and demeaning in its portrayal of black characters.
