How is the nonfictional text similar to the fictional text in The People Could Fly? Both use slave narratives to tell about

the Underground Railroad. Both suggest that gaining freedom felt like a fantasy to many people. Both use historical details to describe the life of an actual person. Both tell an inspirational story about an enslaved person becoming free.

Answer:

Both tell an inspirational story about an enslaved person becoming free.

Step-by-step explanation:

The People Could Fly is a 1985 compilation of twenty-four folktales about African-American slaves, by Virginia Hamilton and illustrated by Leo and Diane Dillon. It includes fictional texts, such as animal tales, fantastic fairy stories, and tales of the supernatural, as well as nonfictional chronicles of slavery and attempts to reach freedom.
