Slaves and servant had begun to revolt against the brutality of their masters by not doing the chores they were ordered to do. For this reason, new laws were assembled to cease the rebellion. Some of those laws included: “Law Makes Killing a Slave Legal” established in 1669 and the “Law Authorizes Force to Suppress Rebellious Slaves, Indians, and Servants,” established in 1672. These laws described if a slave resists his/her master they have a possibility of being killed. This was stated clearly in the description of the 1672 law, “…as it hath beene manifested…that many negroes…are out in rebellion…whome many mischeifs…dangerous...for the prevention…if any nergroe, molatto, Indian slave, or servant for life, runaway...it shall lawful for any person…to take him, upon the resistance…to kill or wound him.” (“Virginia Servant and Slave Laws,” in Handout Set, p. 3) Summarizing the quote, if a slave attempts to runaway and is seen they have a probability of being killed or wounded.

The areas of Africa where they had been sold into slavery were experiencing intense civil wars, and a number of ex-soldiers found themselves enslaved after surrendering to their enemies. South Carolinians thought it was possible that the slaves' African origins had contributed to the rebellion.

South Carolina also wanted to slow the rate of importation down; African-Americans outnumbered whites in South Carolina, and South Carolinians lived in fear of

1st Period In Uncle Tom’s Cabin, Harriet Beecher Stowe’s point that she was trying to get communicate in Uncle Tom’s Cabin is that slavery should be abolished. She communicated this by showing the reader how brutal and callous humans can be, how hard it was for blacks to become free, and how loyal some slaves were despite the fact that they were treated as if they were property. One way Stowe showed that slavery should be abolished is by showing the reader the brutal treatment of the slaves. Stowe included how slave owners like Master Simon Legree work their slaves to death and buy more slaves for cheap, repeating this cycle over and over(Ch 31). Tom was sold at an auction to Master Legree after Master St. Clare is killed(Ch 30).

For many African Americans during this time, that meant that you were freed as a slave only to be arrested and deemed a slave once again. How does this relate to mass or wrongful incarceration today?

The Stono Rebellion signified a sense of belligerence in Africans during the mid 18th century. The aggression that the rebels portrayed demonstrated their desire to express their feelings towards the white people that treated them poorly. Hence, the slaves’ desire to kill showed how desperate they were in order to do that expressing. The only right thing for the slaves was to go out and kill every white people whom they despised no matter what age or gender so they can get the freedom promised by the Spanish King in Florida. Indeed, going against the white people would result in massive consequences like immediate death for those rebels and effects which would try to stop this from happening again.

Kindness was rarely shown to slaves, but deliberate cruelty was also frowned upon (Roman Empire). For example, a slave could choose their partner and live with them on their master’s property, but their marriage held no legal status and their children would be born into slavery (Roman Empire). Slaves were subject to considerable mistreatment, but their punishments were downright ruthless (Roman Empire). A typical punishment consisted of whippings, the breaking of bones and joints, and brandings (Roman Empire). A thief, liar, or runaway would often be branded across their forehead (Roman Empire).
