Description

Move beyond the traditional image of a single master and slave to understand a different side of history. This book explores how institutions like church congregations, schools, colleges, and businesses owned slaves in early Virginia. It examines how Virginia's educational, religious, and philanthropic organizations were built using the labor of enslaved people. This study provides a deep look at how Virginia's first industrial economy relied on the skilled labor of African American slaves. The text focuses on institutional slavery as practiced by the Anglican and Presbyterian churches and other organizations between 1680 and 1860. It is an essential resource for those studying the history of slavery and emancipation in the American South.
