Answer 1

Answer: Free blacks in the South faced economic, civil, and social restrictions. Southern state laws seriously limited their mobility, rights, and opportunities. If granted equality, free blacks would have offered competition to whites and certainly would have set a bad example in raising the hopes and expectations of black slaves.

Answer 2

Answer: Slaves engaged in various day-to-day acts of resistance, such as feigning illness and misplacing or breaking tools. Ultimately, slaves might have run away, sometimes receiving help from sympathetic abolitionists. Organized slave revolts were rare in the United States because of the limited chances for success and the severity of reprisals.

Answer 3

Answer: In family life, religion, and music, slaves both described their experiences and sought release from hardship. Slave spirituals illustrated both the communal religious experience and the Christian themes of suffering and redemption. Slave parents served as protectors, providers, comforters, transmitters of culture, and role models for their children.
