PDF Against the Odds: Free Blacks in the Slave Societies of the Americas (Slave and Post-Slave Societies and Cultures) by From Brand: Routledge in History

Description

This is the first fully documented study of Negro slave revolts in The United States. Dr. Aptheker provides proof; obtained by painstaking research; that this content and rebelliousness were not only exceedingly common; but we're characteristic of American Negro slaves. Special attention is paid to the famous slave rebellion of Nat Turner; into the revolts led by Denmark Vesey and Gabriel. This pioneering study remains a major contribution to the destruction of the myth of Afro - American docility.
