Half-freedom in the New Amsterdam colony referred to a status granted to some enslaved Africans, allowing them limited rights and the ability to earn wages while still being subject to certain obligations. These individuals were allowed to work for themselves after fulfilling their duties to their masters, but they still lacked full legal freedom and could be called back into servitude at any time. This system was a way for the colony to retain labor while also managing its growing population of enslaved people. Ultimately, half-freedom highlighted the complexities and contradictions of slavery in early colonial America.
