Description

INTRODUCTION There is an overwhelming body of literature on how Africans resisted the imposition and institution of slavery in the Americas. (1) This literature has examined and documented African slave resistance in the Americas within two different but inter-connected categories. On the one hand, the enslaved Africans used overt or open and observable forms of resistance such as the destroying plantation property, killing their owners and engaging in outright revolts and rebellions. While thousands of overt forms of resistance occurred in the Americas, not all led to freedom for the enslaved. (2) Many slave conspiracies and rebellions were uncovered and suppressed by the more powerful plantation management. Some slave revolts, however, were successful. The most well-known are, of course, the slave revolts on Haiti (1804) and on St. Croix (1848).
