This work analyzes the slaves escapes in the Amazonas of the 19th century second half. Fragments of life found in different movements of escape from captivity, were related to the intricate web of social, power, economic and cultural relations in which slaves were bound. Slaves were the least privileged class social in a excluding social structure, and escaping was a way to redefine captivity. In the period 1850-1870, when there were no laws for emancipation and a few master granted manumissions, many escaped, pressing radically. From 1870, when it was created laws and funds to emancipation, especially the 28th September 1871 Law that freed those born from that date lead to a decrease of escapes. Through hard work, the women slaves (far beyond the men slaves) sought, through legal ways, freedom. Thus, retained autonomy from the old masters, without necessarily breaking relations. In exchange for protection, shelter and education to the "naive", allowed the continued use of child labor. In baptism, chose as godparents to their children the family members of masters and public figures. It was fictitious kinship networks that was used to protect their children from a precarious freedom. In this context, passed away to be a very effective strategy to redefine the conditions of live by himself .
O presente trabalho analisa as fugas escravas no Amazonas da segunda metade do século XIX. Os fragmentos de vida encontrados, em diferentes movimentos de fuga do cativeiro, foram relacionados as intricadas relações sociais, de poder, econômicas e culturais vivenciadas pelos escravizados que, localizados nas camadas mais baixas de uma estrutura hierarquizada e excludente, fugiam e redefiniam o cativeiro. No período de 1850-1870, quando não existiam leis emancipacionistas e raros senhores concediam alforrias, muitos fugiram, pressionando de forma radical. A partir de 1870, quando se criaram leis e fundos para emancipação, em especial a Lei de 28 de Setembro de 1871 que libertou os nascidos desde então, as fugas diminuíram. Através do trabalho árduo, as escravas (bem mais que os homens) buscaram, por vias legais, a liberdade. Com isso, mantinham a autonomia frente aos antigos senhores, sem necessariamente romper relações. Em troca de proteção, abrigo e instrução aos ingênuos , permitiam a continuidade do uso do trabalho das crianças. Nos batizados, escolhiam como padrinhos de seus filhos os familiares dos senhores ou figuras públicas. Eram redes de parentesco fictício que protegiam os filhos de uma liberdade precária. Nesse contexto, fugir passava a ser uma estratégia pouco eficaz de redefinir as condições de viver sobre si.

This dissertation examines the conflict over slavery and freedom in Philadelphia from 1820 to 1847. As the northernmost southern city in a state that bordered three slave states, Philadelphia maintained a long tradition of abolitionism and fugitive slave activity. Conflicts that arose over fugitive slaves and the kidnapping of free African-Americans forced Philadelphians to confront the politics of slavery. This dissertation argues that until 1847, Pennsylvania was in effect a slave state. The work of proslavery groups, namely slave masters, their agents, white and black kidnappers, and local, state, and national political supporters, undermined the ostensible successes of state laws designed to protect the freedom of African-Americans in Pennsylvania. Commonly referred to as “liberty laws,” this legislation exposed the inherent difficulty in determining the free or enslaved status of not only fugitive slaves but also African-American kidnapping victims. By studying the specific fugitive or kidnapping cases that inspired these liberty laws, one finds that time and again African-Americans and their allies forced white politicians to grapple with the reality that Pennsylvania was not a safe-haven for African-Americans, regardless of their condition of bondage or freedom. Furthermore, these cases often precipitated into desperate rescues and bloody riots on the streets of Philadelphia; these civil wars in miniature reflected the negotiated and compromised realities of living while black in the city. Ordinary African-Americans living in Philadelphia bore the burden of comity, or friendly relations between states, by practicing what I term “street diplomacy”: the up-close and personal struggles over freedom and slavery that had local, state, and national ramifications. In a larger sense, street diplomacy in Philadelphia magnified the stakes of national comity, i.e. the Union, by showcasing how dividing states by their condition of bondage remained impossible due to permeable geographic borders that fostered perpetual fugitive slave and kidnapping crises. Thus, this dissertation argues that African-Americans and their allies’ struggles with slave-masters, slave-catchers, kidnappers and proslavery politicians disrupted the best efforts of white politicians to maintain a compromised and compromising Union.
