The most common form of resistance by enslaved Africans to their condition was?
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.
