One thing enslaved Africans did to survive life under slavery was to build strong communities and support networks among themselves. This allowed them to provide mutual assistance, share resources, and maintain cultural traditions despite the harsh conditions they faced.
is their families
Certainly not for those enslaved. It should be remembered that slavery still exists today It made economic sense for those that enslaved people. Morally it was and remains indefensible.
The main reason that slaves did not give up at that time is probably hope for their families.
Southern slave owners defended slavery by arguing that it was necessary for maintaining the economy and way of life in the South. They claimed that slavery was justified biblically and scientifically, portraying enslaved people as inferior and in need of guidance and discipline. They also used legal and political justifications to protect their property rights in enslaved individuals.
Going back to the beginning of civilization, most slaves through history were not black. 'White' people have been enslaved by millions and millions, from Greek and Roman times until well into the 19th century in Russia. In most Arab and Asian countries slavery was endemic, with many countries holding millions of their countrymen as slaves until long after the end of black slavery by countries like England, France and the USA. The transatlantic slave trade (although big in numbers) was only a small part of the slave trade of Africans by Africans. The major reason given around 1890 for colonization in Africa was 'putting an end to slavery', since local rulers could not be brought to do it otherwise. It was in fact the first thing that (in most cases) France and Britain did after colonizing an African country.
Slavery in Delaware was similar to other Southern states, with African Americans being enslaved for agricultural work on farms and plantations. Delaware had more lenient slave laws compared to other states, such as allowing enslaved individuals to learn to read and write. Emancipation in Delaware began before the Civil War, with gradual abolition leading to the end of slavery in 1865.
because the collonists took every thing that africans had
The goal of abolitionists was to end the institution of slavery and secure freedom and equal rights for all enslaved people. They believed that slavery was morally wrong and fought for its abolition through political, social, and sometimes militant means.
In his House Divided Speech, Lincoln stated his belief that the nation could not remain partly free and partly enslaved, that it must become all one thing or the other. He believed that slavery divided the nation in an unproductive way.
I dont know but i know why the colonists begin moving to the backcountry by the middle 1700s it's because the backcountry is the name that these colonists gave to the rugged land near the appalachian mountains.
No slavery is a terrible thing
