Document Summary
3 rolls of microfilm (only sources besides what we talked about in class) (reels not dates) Part of the grade is how well you do your research investigate . One roll from three groups: colonial american revolution era, late 18th and 19th century, 20th century. Slave owner knows that it is always there up to a point. The idea of destroying your own property sometimes stopped harsh punishment. Could mean the cancellation of a dance (at this level however there is not a violation of the sunday off rule) Most attention is drawn to the use of the whip. (symbol of white power) on some plantatons whips were not used, sometimes it was always used. Whipping would occur if you attacked a white person (or even just touched him) or running away (the law for running away says that they are stealing themselves so they are charged with theft)
