Book Emancipation in the West Indies

Download or read book Emancipation in the West Indies written by James Armstrong Thome and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-01-08 with total page 496 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Emancipation in the West Indies: A Six Months' Tour in Antigua, Barbadoes, and Jamaica, in the Year 1837 IT is hardly possible that the success of British West India Emancipation should be more conclusively proved, than it has been by the absence among us of the exultation which awaited its failure. So many thousands of the citizens of the United States, Without counting slaveholders, would not have suffered their prophesyings to be falsified, if they could have found whereof to manufacture fulfilment. But it is remarkable that, even since the first of August, 1834, the evils of West India emancipation on the lips of the advocates of slavery, or, as the most of them nicely prefer to be termed, the opponents of abolition, have remained in the future tense. The bad reports of the newspapers, spiritless as they have been compared With the predictions, have been traceable, on the slightest inspection, not to emancipation, but to the illegal continuance of slavery, under the cover of its legal substitute. Not the slightest reference to the rash act, whereby the thirty thousand slaves of Antigua were immediately turned loose, now mingles with the croaking which strives to defend our republican slavery against argu ment and common sense.

Book Negotiating relief and freedom

Download or read book Negotiating relief and freedom written by Oscar Webber and published by Manchester University Press. This book was released on 2023-09-12 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Negotiating relief and freedom is an investigation of short- and long-term responses to disaster in the British Caribbean colonies during the ‘long’ nineteenth century. It explores how colonial environmental degradation made their inhabitants both more vulnerable to and expanded the impact of natural phenomena such as hurricanes, earthquakes, and volcanic eruptions. It shows that British approaches to disaster ‘relief’ prioritised colonial control and ‘fiscal prudence’ ahead of the relief of the relief of suffering. In turn, that this pattern played out continuously in the long nineteenth century is a reminder that in the Caribbean the transition from slavery to waged labour was not a clean one. Times of crisis brought racial and social tensions to the fore and freedoms once granted, were often quickly curtailed.

Book Beacons of Liberty

  • Author : Elena K. Abbott
  • Publisher : Cambridge University Press
  • Release : 2021-04-22
  • ISBN : 1108871038
  • Pages : 337 pages

Download or read book Beacons of Liberty written by Elena K. Abbott and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2021-04-22 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Before the Civil War, free African Americans and fugitive slaves crossed international borders to places like Canada, Mexico, and the Caribbean in search of freedom and equality. Beacons of Liberty tells the story of how these bold migrants catalyzed contentious debates over citizenship, racial justice, and national character in the United States. Blending fresh historical analysis with incredible stories of escape and rebellion, Elena K. Abbott shows how the shifting geography of slavery and freedom beyond US borders helped shape the hopes and expectations of black radicals, white politicians, and fiery reformers engaged in the American anti-slavery movement. Featuring perspectives from activists and risk-takers like Mary Ann Shadd, Martin Delany, and James C. Brown, Beacons of Liberty illuminates the critical role that international free soil played in the long and arduous fight for emancipation and racial justice in the United States.

Book Agency of the Enslaved

  • Author : Daive A. Dunkley
  • Publisher : Rowman & Littlefield
  • Release : 2013
  • ISBN : 0739168037
  • Pages : 241 pages

Download or read book Agency of the Enslaved written by Daive A. Dunkley and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2013 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Agency of the Enslaved: Jamaica and the Culture of Freedom in the Atlantic World, D.A. Dunkley challenges the notion that enslavement fostered the culture of freedom in the former colonies of Western Europe in the Americas. Dunkley argues the point that the preconception that out of slavery came freedom has discouraged scholars from fully exploring the importance of the agency displayed by enslaved people. This study examines those struggles and argues that these formed the real basis of the culture of freedom in the Atlantic societies. These struggles were not for freedom, but for the acknowledgment of the freedom that enslaved people knew was already theirs. Agency of the Enslaved reveals several major incidents in which the enslaved in Jamaica--a country Dunkley uses as a case study with wider applicability to the Atlantic world--demonstrated that they viewed slavery as an immoral, illegal, unnecessary, temporary, and socially deprecating imposition. These views inspired their attempts to undermine the slave system that the British had established in Jamaica shortly after they captured the island in 1655. Acts of resistance took place throughout the island-colony and were recorded on the sugar plantations and in the courts, schools, and Christian churches. The slaveholders envisaged all of these sites as participants in their attempts to dominate the enslaved people. Regardless, the enslaved had re-envisioned and had used these places as sites of empowerment, and to show that they would never accept the designation of 'slave.'

Book Representations of Slave Women in Discourses on Slavery and Abolition  1780   1838

Download or read book Representations of Slave Women in Discourses on Slavery and Abolition 1780 1838 written by Henrice Altink and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2005-06-22 with total page 269 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book analyzes textual representations of Jamaican slave women in three contexts--motherhood, intimate relationships, and work--in both pro- and antislavery writings. Altink examines how British abolitionists and pro-slavery activists represented the slave women to their audiences and explains not only the purposes that these representations served, but also their effects on slave women’s lives.
