For enslaved African Americans in the antebellum period, emancipation was writ large as the most pressing of political imperatives stemming from the most fundamental obligations of justice and humanity. That it could be achieved individually was clear from the activities of countless runaways, fugitives and cultural and political activists, Douglass and Jacobs included, who escaped territories of enslavement to become self-emancipated subjects on free soil. That it could be achieved collectively was evidenced by the success of the Haitian Revolution, with its army of enslaved and free black persons. This piece explores the ways in which emancipation is understood 150 years after US Emancipation at the end of the Civil War, and provides an introduction to the new scholarship on the many acts of emancipation, memorialization and practices of freedom discussed in this special issue.

This article explores the transition from enslavement to post-emancipation realities in the Muslim-majority societies of the Middle East and North Africa during the last stage of empire and the first phase of nation-building. The main argument is that within enslavement, there were gradations of bondage and servitude, not merely a dichotomy between free and enslaved. The various social positions occupied by the enslaved are best understood as points on a continuum of social, economic, and cultural realities. In turn, these were reproduced after emancipation in the successor states that emerged following the demise of the Ottoman and Qajar empires, the Sharifian state in Morocco, and the various principalities of the Arab/Persian Gulf. Hence, post-emancipation did not create equal citizenship for all freed persons, but rather the inequality within enslavement transitioned into the post-imperial societies of the Middle East and North Africa.

When, how, and why—if at all—did slavery end in the Nigerien Sahel? What processes facilitated the emancipation of enslaved persons? What were the strategies of colonial administrators, slave-owners, slave-traders, slaves, and slave descendants? In the first two decades following France’s occupation of the Central Sahel, legal abolition did not lead to the suppression of slavery, because laws were not at first enforced. But in the 1920s the internationalization of abolitionism that followed the creation of the League of Nations resulted in the activation of anti-slavery laws. This article argues that emancipation was initially propelled by the establishment of international surveillance mechanisms with the power to (de-)legitimize colonial rule at a time when no one was actively seeking to end slavery in this region. The first section highlights the ambiguities of European abolitionism and reveals the web of connections between the League of Nations, the French state, and French administrators on the ground. The second section develops a microanalysis of slave resistance, showing how some enslaved and trafficked persons, especially young women, profited from global institutional transformations to incriminate their owners and traffickers. The final section considers the contemporary recollections of an elderly woman, who in her youth experienced circumstances analogous to those described earlier in the article. Her perceptions, and those of others like her, exist today in a context marked by tension between circumscribed proslavery discourses and national grassroots abolitionism.

AbstractThis article examines British understandings of the laws and legal traditions that regulated slavery in French and Spanish colonies in the late eighteenth century, particularly between the American and French Revolutions. Based on reports from those with firsthand knowledge of different slave systems, many imperial commentators contended that enslaved persons under French and Spanish rule were treated more humanely—and consequently worked more efficiently—than those in British jurisdictions. Advocates of slavery reform therefore looked to the slave management strategies of competitors to help advance their cause. For some, appropriating foreign slave regulations became a central feature of programs designed to lessen the brutality of slavery and eventually bring about emancipation. For others, highlighting the comparatively benign treatment of enslaved workers in French and Spanish islands served as a way to pressure the British government to more proactively police slaveholding in its own colonies. By exploring calls to emulate the slave regulations of rival empires, this article provides a window onto shifting British attitudes toward both slavery and imperial governance during a period of major political and economic change in the Atlantic World.

Abstract Challenging the Eurocentric belief that abolitionism was a top-down process issued by colonial powers, this article explores the emergence of personal and group strategies for the emancipation of Black enslaved people in Libya. During the late Ottoman period, Italian antislavery activities operated in Libya and established a mission in Benghazi to host manumitted children referred to as ‘Moretti’ (‘little Moors’). The goal was to make these Moretti a group of local people close to the Catholic Church and the Italian government. The failures of the missionaries to accomplish these aims reveal the strategies and trajectories of Moretti as they negotiated their role in society, especially after Italian occupation in 1911. Historical sources reveal an informal web of solidarity using antislavery societies and creating forms of urban and social autonomy. This article details actions of solidarity among Black enslaved persons that took place in late Ottoman and Italian colonial Libya, which challenges Eurocentric antislavery narratives.

Annotation:

Anthony Benezet scoured the available English literature of colonial exploitation for evidence of the humanity of the trafficked Africans and the inhumanity of the European traders in human beings. He compiled and published this Short Account in 1762 to present the case for termination of the trans-Atlantic transportation of kidnapped Africans, for abolition of slavery and the slave trade, and for emancipation of the enslaved persons held in bondage in North America and elsewhere. Drawing on Scottish moral philosophy, British Whig ideology, and, most importantly, on New Testament gospel teachings, Benezet presented both reasoned and impassioned appeals for the recognition that Africans had rights to life and liberty that were being abrogated on an industrial scale in violation of the most basic Christian beliefs. The mid-eighteenth century witnessed the height of the English and North American participation in the trans-Atlantic slave trade, and this early abolitionist tract raised an important and ultimately influential outcry in favor of its termination and the remediation of its manifold abuses.

Annotation:

Northerners and Southerners alike often viewed the Civil War as a revolution. For Confederates, secession promised a return to the era of the Founders when, they presumed, property rights in humans were secure. Unionists found ambiguity, not certainty, in the term revolution, eventually offsetting their fears of unrestrained violence with the belief that destroying slavery might entail unleashing revolutionary social change. Everyone, North and South, grappled with understanding the peculiarities of revolutionary time: its ability to accelerate, to slow down or stop, and even to move backward. As the end of the war drew near, the thought that the centuries-old institution of slavery had collapsed in little more than four years required suspending conventional wisdom about the passage of time. But for enslaved persons, those years seemed an eternity during which unknown thousands had perished before freedom arrived. Both privately and publicly, observers North and South pondered the fearsome toll that slavery and its violent destruction exacted upon the nation.

This chapter follows the journey of the author in searching for some historian of music or ethnomusicologist to have made the connection between slave revolts and their musical expression. It begins by narrating how he stumbled upon an old, dog-eared pamphlet with the title “Negro Slave Revolts in the United States, 1526–1860.” In the pamphlet, author Herbert Aptheker documented the frequency and consistency of rebellions beginning with one in a doomed Spanish colony in what is now South Carolina in 1526. Enslaved Africans brought there that very year staged a revolt, killing many of the Spanish before running off to join Indians in the neighborhood. Amidst all the dates and names, the numbers and incidents, the chapter pays attention to the lyrics to a song written in the pamphlet. These lyrics, according to Aptheker, had been composed and sung by enslaved persons at a clandestine meeting to plan an insurrection in 1813. The chapter questions if the song could be an example of the exaggerations Aptheker has been accused of. Could this be wishful thinking on the part of a well-intentioned scholar who nonetheless was reinterpreting or even manipulating the facts to give a false impression? This text, from this period, immediately posed questions that demanded answers.

This chapter explores how Harriet Jacobs’s Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl (1861) exposes the problematic function of pain in the disciplinary apparatus of slavery and in the constitution of Black subjectivity. It considers how Jacobs illuminates the contradiction of slavery’s biopolitical power, which treated enslaved men and women as both possessing and not possessing a will. As property, the chapter shows, enslaved people had no will, only a body that did not belong to them; as legal persons, they were granted a negative will of criminal intent, which returned them to their commodified body, experienced through the pain of forced labor and corporeal punishment. The chapter demonstrates however that, rather than seeking to escape from body to will, Jacobs’s journey from enslavement to emancipation takes the form of a looping structure, whereby she comes to will her own pain of body and mind through her escape in the “loophole of retreat” she finds in her grandmother’s garret. It further argues that the narrativization of her pain complicates the equivalence between literacy and liberation that underwrites slave narratives, as much as it challenges the conventions of sentimentalism that Incidents nevertheless deploys. It eventually makes the claim that, by willing pain as a paradoxical source of agency, Jacobs’s narrative reveals how pain is integral both to the reappropriation of embodied selfhood and to the familial and social bonds she strives to recover after her flight from enslavement.

This chapter looks at the works of Black American abolitionist Frederick Douglass. It argues that Douglass’ political thinking was shaped by his experiences as an enslaved, fugitive, and freed person. Douglass fought for the emancipation of all enslaved peoples across the USA as he believed all humans were born with a right to self-determination and freedom from enslavement. Additionally, Douglass believed slavery to be a deep violation of a person’s humanity. The chapter explains that Douglass’ abolitionism was grounded in natural rights theory. It looks at the legacy of the influential political theory on liberty that Douglass left behind. This was despite his complicated and often contradictory relationship to early women’s rights movements and his struggles to acknowledge the claims of Indigenous people.

The schizophrenic nature of Ohio’s politics was represented by two Ohio Republican congressmen in early 1861: the “Corwin amendment” to the Constitution, proposed by the eminent Thomas Corwin, guaranteed slavery’s legality in perpetuity so as to forestall civil war; a bill by James Ashley mandated compensated emancipation for any enslaved person escaping to a free state. Meanwhile, former Governor Salmon P. Chase, widely identified with bringing black men into the Republican Party, joined Lincoln’s cabinet as Secretary of the Treasury.

This chapter focuses on William Wells Brown’s 1873 intercontinental Black history, The Rising Son; or, the Antecedents and Advancement of the Colored Race, as well as his 1880 personal and regional history, My Southern Home: or, the South and Its Peoples. Prepared amidst Radical Reconstruction’s climax and demise, both books document how a formerly enslaved Brown, who liberated himself from Missouri servitude in 1834, deployed distant and recent pasts on behalf of an ongoing freedom struggle. For the pioneering African American public intellectual, who legally secured his liberty in 1854, abolitionism revolved about two paramount “E’s”—the emancipation of the enslaved and the elevation of people of color. The birth of millions of freedpeople due to the Civil War’s destructiveness thus enabled him to enlarge and nationalize a transcendent racial uplift campaign, one that had originally accompanied the emergence of the first all-free Black populations in the United States as bondage gradually ended across the North during the late eighteenth and early-nineteenth centuries. This chapter, then, spotlights the ways in which a veteran abolitionist attempted to realize unfinished activism as a middle-class moralist and conduct writer, whose code bourgeois and betterment evangel always combated racism.

This chapter focuses on Aaron Macy Powell’s posthumously published 1899 autobiography, Personal Reminiscences of the Anti-Slavery and Other Reforms and Reformers. Despite the resurgence of white supremacy, Black subordination across the former Confederacy, other postbellum concerns took precedence as the retrospective writer thought and wrote about antebellum abolitionism. The seemingly rampant immorality attending renewed industrialization and urbanization particularly caused the veteran abolitionist to take up a new antislavery endeavor after 1876: opposition to prostitution. To be sure, Powell commemorated the immediate emancipation activists with whom he worked closely during the 1850s and 1860s. He also charted, in a genealogical fashion, the philanthropic linkages between those who respectively battled systems of servitude before and after the Civil War. By rendering past antislavery agitators as forerunners of present-day purity crusaders, the chronicler effectively devised a teleological narrative in which the transatlantic campaign to liberate enslaved Black people culminated in the Western world’s struggle to eradicate “white slavery.” This chapter thus investigates Powell’s transformation of old abolitionism into a Gilded Age humanitarian tool and how that reinvention provided no solutions to the evolving Jim Crow times.
