The term "Ask us" refers to a form of passive resistance by slaves who would work slowly or feign illness in order to resist their masters' demands and assert a degree of control over their own labor. This tactic was a way for slaves to resist the harsh conditions and exploitation they faced while avoiding direct confrontations or violence.
It varies depending on the type of work, the slaves, their treatment, etc. The most common forms of resistance we often minor issues geared towards making a point or simply attempting to make the work day easy. Slaves would often work slower to make a point or they would "accidentally" break the tools they were using. Another form of resistance would be running away. The problem with this is it was far more risky, but the reward for success was clearly greater. The most daring and risky forms of resistance would be attempts of murder. House slaves would attempt to poison the master's food, but this was rare. Even more rare would be cases of a slave revolution but, they did happen and in some places (mostly in isolated areas such as the Caribbean) they were successful.

Slaves used passive resistance by pretending to be ill or working slowly, they used sabotage by breaking tools or damaging crops, and they used escape by running away from plantations to seek freedom.
Slaves resisted their owners in various ways, such as running away, sabotage, and acts of defiance like pretending to be sick or working slowly. They also formed slave revolts and rebellions to challenge the institution of slavery. Additionally, some slaves used cultural practices and forms of communication to maintain their autonomy and resist their oppressors.
Slaves resisted slavery through indirect forms of resistance such as sabotage, working slowly, pretending to be sick, breaking tools, and feigning ignorance. They also used cultural traditions, language, and music as a way to maintain a sense of identity and community in the face of oppression. Additionally, some slaves sought to undermine the system by running away or participating in rebellions.
Slaves committed sabotage by breaking tools or equipment, feigning illness, working slowly, or purposefully making mistakes. They also practiced self-harm or ran away to resist their enslavement. Some slaves even organized revolts or uprisings to challenge the system.

One way slaves resisted slavery was by engaging in acts of sabotage, such as breaking tools or slowing down work.
