Book The Liberty Line

    Book Details:
  • Author : Larry Gara
  • Publisher : University Press of Kentucky
  • Release : 2013-07-24
  • ISBN : 081314356X
  • Pages : 155 pages

Download or read book The Liberty Line written by Larry Gara and published by University Press of Kentucky. This book was released on 2013-07-24 with total page 155 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: " The underground railroad—with its mysterious signals, secret depots, abolitionist heroes, and slave-hunting villains—has become part of American mythology. But legend has distorted much of this history. Larry Gara shows how pre-Civil War partisan propanda, postwar remininscences by fame-hungry abolitionists, and oral tradition helped foster the popular belief that a powerful secret organization spirited floods of slaves away from the South. In contrast to much popular belief, however, the slaves themselves had active roles in their own escape. They carried out their runs, receiving aid only after they had reached territory where they still faced return. The Liberty Line puts slaves in their rightful position: the center of their struggle for freedom.

Book Listening to Nineteenth Century America

Download or read book Listening to Nineteenth Century America written by Mark M. Smith and published by UNC Press Books. This book was released on 2015-12-01 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Arguing for the importance of the aural dimension of history, Mark M. Smith contends that to understand what it meant to be northern or southern, slave or free--to understand sectionalism and the attitudes toward modernity that led to the Civil War--we must consider how antebellum Americans comprehended the sounds and silences they heard. Smith explores how northerners and southerners perceived the sounds associated with antebellum developments including the market revolution, industrialization, westward expansion, and abolitionism. In northern modernization, southern slaveholders heard the noise of the mob, the din of industrialism, and threats to what they considered their quiet, orderly way of life; in southern slavery, northern abolitionists and capitalists heard the screams of enslaved labor, the silence of oppression, and signals of premodernity that threatened their vision of the American future. Sectional consciousness was profoundly influenced by the sounds people attributed to their regions. And as sectionalism hardened into fierce antagonism, it propelled the nation toward its most earsplitting conflict, the Civil War.

Book African American Sites in Florida

Download or read book African American Sites in Florida written by Kevin M McCarthy and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2019-07-24 with total page 345 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: African Americans have risen from the slave plantations of nineteenth-century Florida to become the heads of corporations and members of Congress in the twenty-first century. They have played an important role in making Florida the successful state it is today. This book takes you on a tour, through the 67 counties, of the sites that commemorate the role of African Americans in Florida's history. If we can learn more about our past, both the good and the not-so-good, we can make better decisions in the future. Behind the hundreds of sites in this book are the courageous African Americans like Brevard County's Malissa Moore, who hosted many Saturday night dinners to raise money to build a church, and Miami-Dade's Gedar Walker, who built the first-rate Lyric Theater for black performers. And of course also featured are the more famous black Floridians like Zora Neale Hurston, Jackie Robinson, Mary McCleod Bethune, and Ray Charles.

Book Rebellious Passage

    Book Details:
  • Author : Jeffrey R. Kerr-Ritchie
  • Publisher : Cambridge University Press
  • Release : 2019-02-07
  • ISBN : 1108754694
  • Pages : 377 pages

Download or read book Rebellious Passage written by Jeffrey R. Kerr-Ritchie and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2019-02-07 with total page 377 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In late October 1841, the Creole left Richmond with 137 slaves bound for New Orleans. It arrived five weeks later minus the Captain, one passenger, and most of the captives. Nineteen rebels had seized the US slave ship en route and steered it to the British Bahamas where the slaves gained their liberty. Drawing upon a sweeping array of previously unexamined state, federal, and British colonial sources, Rebellious Passage examines the neglected maritime dimensions of the extensive US slave trade and slave revolt. The focus on south-to-south self-emancipators at sea differs from the familiar narrative of south-to-north fugitive slaves over land. Moreover, a broader hemispheric framework of clashing slavery and antislavery empires replaces an emphasis on US antebellum sectional rivalry. Written with verve and commitment, Rebellious Passage chronicles the first comprehensive history of the ship revolt, its consequences, and its relevance to global modern slavery.

Book Freedom Seekers

    Book Details:
  • Author : Damian Alan Pargas
  • Publisher : Cambridge University Press
  • Release : 2021-11-18
  • ISBN : 1316843831
  • Pages : 311 pages

Download or read book Freedom Seekers written by Damian Alan Pargas and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2021-11-18 with total page 311 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this fascinating book, Damian Alan Pargas introduces a new conceptualization of 'spaces of freedom' for fugitive slaves in North America between 1800 and 1860, and answers the questions: How and why did enslaved people flee to – and navigate – different destinations throughout the continent, and to what extent did they succeed in evading recapture and re-enslavement? Taking a continental approach, this study highlights the diversity of slave fight by conceptually dividing the continent into three distinct – and continuously evolving – spaces of freedom. Namely, spaces of informal freedom in the US South, where enslaved people attempted to flee by passing as free blacks; spaces of semi-formal freedom in the US North, where slavery was abolished but the precise status of fugitive slaves was contested; and spaces of formal freedom in Canada and Mexico, where slavery was abolished and runaways were considered legally free and safe from re-enslavement.
