Prior to the abolition of slavery, thousands of African-descended people in the Americas lived in free dom. In Black Freedom in the Age of Slavery John Garrison Marks examines how these individuate built lives in freedom for themselves and their families in two of the Atlantic World’s most important urban centers: Cartagena, along the Caribbean coast of modern-day Colombia, and Charleston, in the lowcountry of North America’s Atlantic coast. Marks reveals how skills, knowledge, reputation, and personal relationships helped free people of cotor improve their fortunes and achieve social distinc tion in ways that undermined Whites’ claims to racial superiority. Built upon research conducted on three continents, this book takes a comparative approach to un derstanding the eontours of Black freedom in the Americas. Marks details the creative and persistent attempts of free Black people to improve their lives and that of their families. In the process they staked their claims to rights, privileges, and distinctions not typically afforded to those of African descent and engaged with White elites and state authorities in ways that challenged prevailing racial attitudes. While Whites across the Americas shared common doubts about the ability of African-descended people to survive in freedom or contribute meaningfully to society, free Black people in Cartagena, Charleston, and beyond conducted themselves in ways that exposed cracks in the foundations of American racial hierarchies. Their actions represented early contributions to the long fight for recog nition, civil rights, and
racial justice that continues today.
