What is the meaning of this quote?

“The slaves who could not fly told about the people who could fly to their children. When they were free. When they sat close before the fire in the free land, they told it.”
I would really appreciate it if you answered. Thanks! :)

Answer:

This is most likely a referring to how flight and freedom is often associated

Step-by-step explanation:

Because people who were slaves often times were shackled and forced to work the comparison of the freedom of flying was made to people who were not enslaved or escaped enslavement.
