For this answer, you should look at Bacon's Rebellion-
Where Nathanial Bacon revolted against the governor of Virginia, attempting to burn down all of Jamestown.
The reason the former indentured servants threatened the elit is because Bacon's mob was comprised of jaded indentured servants (who were getting the short end of the stick when it came to land) and African slaves.
After the uprising, none of the wealthy settlers wanted to hire indentured servants, so they turned to African slavery as their main means of labor.
