no fontaine doesnt think selling and buying of slaves is a crime because he says the slaves are enslaved by the nergoes themselves before they are purchased by the masters of the ships who bring them here.
Yes, Fontaine condemns the selling and buying of slaves as a crime against humanity, as it violates the natural rights and dignity of individuals. It goes against the principles of liberty and equality that Fontaine values and believes should be upheld in society.
Slaves and convicts are both individuals who have been deprived of their freedom. Slaves are forced into unpaid labor against their will, while convicts are incarcerated as punishment for committing a crime. Both groups historically have faced severe oppression and exploitation.
Slaves were people who were forced to work without pay and were considered property. Convicts were individuals found guilty of a crime and sentenced to punishment, such as prison time or hard labor. Blackbirders were individuals who coerced or kidnapped people into forced labor, often in the context of the transatlantic slave trade. The key difference between convicts and blackbirders is that convicts were legally sentenced for a crime, whereas blackbirders were involved in illegal and often violent practices of capturing individuals for forced labor.
John Brown's reason for committing the crime was to incite a slave rebellion and ultimately abolish slavery in the United States. He believed that using violent means was necessary to achieve his goal of emancipating the slaves.
Criminals were often used as slaves in ancient civilizations, such as in the Roman Empire and in various African societies. Slavery of criminals was allowed as a form of punishment and to serve as a deterrent to crime. Additionally, in some societies, criminals were sold into slavery as a way to provide restitution to their victims.
The 13th Amendment to the United States Constitution allowed criminals to be used as slaves through a loophole that permitted involuntary servitude as punishment for a crime. This was later challenged and altered by the 1865 Civil Rights Act, which granted equal rights and protection under the law to all citizens, regardless of their criminal status.
