PROBLEMS IN THE COLONIES
How did slaves gain their freedom during the American Revolution?Several thousand slaves won their freedom by serving on both sides of the War of Independence. As a result of the Revolution, a surprising number of slaves were manumitted, while thousands of others freed themselves by running away. In Georgia alone, 5000 slaves, a third of the colony's prewar total, escaped.
What was a problem that free African Americans faced in the 1700s?Free African Americans were rarely accepted into white society. Some states applied their slave codes to free African Americans as well. Perhaps the most horrifying prospect was kidnapping. Slave catchers would sometimes abduct free African Americans and force them back into slavery.
What role did slavery play in the development of the early American colonies?In New England, it was common for individual enslaved people to learn specialized skills and crafts due to the area's more varied economy. Ministers, doctors, tradesmen, and merchants also used enslaved labor to work alongside them and run their households.
What role did slaves play in the American Revolution?In Virginia alone, as many as 150 black men, many of them slaves, served in the state navy. After the war, the legislature granted several of these men their freedom as a reward for faithful service. African Americans also served as gunners, sailors on privateers and in the Continental Navy during the Revolution.
