SynopsisMost Americans, both black and white, believe that slavery was a system exclusively maintained by whites to exploit blacks, but Larry Koger's authoritative study portrays the small yet significant role that African Americans played as masters in the peculiar institution. By profiling South Carolina's diverse population of African-American slaveowners, he demonstrates that free African-Americans embraced slavery as a viable economic system and that they--like their white counterparts--exploited the labor of slaves on their farms and in their businesses.

Compelling!
Don’t let the title fool you. Some black slaveowners were free men who bought family members to protect them and free them from slavery. The institution of slavery was extremely complex. This book is an excellent source of information.Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Gebraucht
