Indentured Servitude Headright System Indentured Contract, 1746

Indentured Servitude Headright System:  Each Virginian got 50 acres for each person whose passage they paid. Indenture Contract:  5-7 years.  Promised “freedom dues” [land, £]  Forbidden to marry.  : only 1 in 10 outlived their indentured contracts!

The Atlantic Slave Trade

Goods Traded with Africa

The “Middle Passage”

As the number of slaves increased, white colonists reacted to put down perceived racial threat.  Slavery transformed from economic to economic and racial institution.  Early 1600s  differences between slave and servant were unclear. By the mid-1680s, black slaves outnumbered white indentured servants. Colonial Slavery

Beginning in 1662  “Slave Codes”  Made blacks [and their children] property, or chattel for life of white masters.  In some colonies, it was a crime to teach a slave to read or write.  Conversion to Christianity did not qualify the slave for freedom. Colonial Slavery

Late 1600s  large numbers of young, poor, discontented men in the Chesapeake area.  Little access to land or women for marriage  The Virginia Assembly disenfranchised most landless men! Frustrated Freemen

Virginians in a rebellion Led 1,000 against Governor Berkeley  Rebels resented Berkeley’s close relations with Indians.  Berkeley monopolized the fur trade with the Indians in the area.  Berkley refused to retaliate for Indian attacks on frontier settlements. Nathaniel Bacon’s Rebellion: 1676 Nathaniel Bacon Governor William Berkeley

Bacon’s Rebellion: 1676

Rebels attacked Indians, whether they were friendly or not to whites. Governor Berkeley driven from Jamestown. They burned the capital.  Rebels went on a rampage of plundering. Bacon suddenly died of fever. Berkeley brutally crushed the rebellion and hanged 20 rebels. Bacon’s Rebellion

Upper class planters searched for laborers less likely to rebel  BLACK SLAVES!! Results of Bacon’s Rebellion
