@genealogystories.bsky.socialMany enslaved men shared a small number of common English names, often in diminutive forms. For example, there were 27 men called Sam on John Tharp's Jamaican plantations, another 12 called Sammy, but only 3 called Samuel buff.ly/lSQBW2i #slavery #Jamaica #familyhistory
@fromslaves.bsky.socialIn July 1852, Evans and I escaped Powell's turpentine shanties in Cumberland County, NC. Powell knew where to look, near Little River in Wake County, where both our wives lived. We risked everything to reunite with them. My name was WASHINGTON. #slavery #blackhistory
![$50 REWARD. RANAWAY from the subscriber, in Cumberland County, on the 30th July, two negro men, Washington and Evans. I have no doubt they are lurking about Little River, near Joseph Fowler's, in Wake county, where they both have wives, or about my plantation in the same neighborhood. I will pay the above reward of Fifty Dollars for the delivery of the said negroes at my Shanties near Murchison & Johnson's Turpentine Distillery on the Plank Road, 20 miles west of Fayetteville, or half of the above reward for either one of them. JOS. [Joseph] D. POWELL. Cumberland, Aug. 9, 1853[sic]. 293--wtf.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_fullsize/plain/did:plc:eo72y36kkln5nqf53nsmbodi/bafkreieeyry6keladkwicl3nk3soddde6x36revo2clorjp6apjrmok6we@png)

@aratani8801.bsky.socialThe reason why privileged Korean residents in Japan are not punished for crimes is because this country is a British colony under divided rule.

@genealogystories.bsky.socialMany enslaved women shared a small number of common English names, making their family connections harder to trace. For example, there were 38 women and girls called Sally on John Tharp's Jamaican plantations buff.ly/5IMQoSO #slavery #Jamaica #familyhistory

@resisdance.bsky.social... about the exploitation of the industrial working class in Europe, then its relationships to slavery and colonialism are hard to understand. Much anti-capitalist thinking sees #capitalism as a step forward from #slavery and #colonialism, rather than as their cause."

@stuffifound.politicalmemes.orgWhite people telling black people to "get over slavery" basically just don't want to learn the lessons history taught us

@genealogystories.bsky.socialAmong the people enslaved on John Tharp's Jamaican plantations (1817-1832) were some with more unusual names. For example, a boy born on Wales plantation in 1816 was called Salust, presumably after the Roman historian of that name buff.ly/XgBJ6Q0 #slavery #Jamaica #familyhistory
@fromslaves.bsky.socialIn June 1852, I left Jernegan's place in Wayne Co., NC. At over six feet tall with light skin, I couldn't easily hide. But I refused to stay captive. They wanted me in Wayne County jail, but I kept moving. My name was LINN. #slavery #NC #blackhistory
