African American folktale , storytelling tradition that evolved among enslaved African Americans in the 18th and 19th centuries. When slaves arrived in the New World from Africa in the 1700s and 1800s, they brought with them a vast oral tradition. The details and characters of the stories evolved over time in the Americas, though many of the motifs endured. The African hare , for example, continued to play the trickster but became Brer Rabbit or Bruh Rabbit. The African jackal became the American fox.
