In Unfreedom, Jared Ross Hardesty examines the lived experience of slaves in eighteenth-century Boston. Instead of relying on the traditional dichotomy of slavery and freedom, Hardesty argues we should understand slavery in Boston as part of a continuum of unfreedom. In this context, African slavery existed alongside many other forms of oppression, including Native American slavery, indentured servitude, apprenticeship, and pauper apprenticeship. In this hierarchical and inherently unfree world, enslaved Bostonians were more concerned with their everyday treatment and honor than with emancipation, as they pushed for autonomy, protected their families and communities, and demanded a place in society. Drawing on exhaustive research in colonial legal records - including wills, court documents, and minutes of governmental bodies - as well as newspapers, church records, and other contemporaneous sources, Hardesty masterfully reconstructs an eighteenth-century Atlantic world of unfreedom that stretched from Europe to Africa to America. By reassessing the lives of enslaved Bostonians as part of a social order structured by ties of dependence, Hardesty not only demonstrates how African slaves were able to decode their new homeland and shape the terms of their enslavement, but also tells the story of how marginalized peoples engrained themselves in the very fabric of colonial American society.
Описание: What happens when we die? Non-believers say death permanently extinguishes life, while believers insist that our souls continue for eternity. There is only one way to know for sure. Or is there? In Glimpses of Heaven, author Thomas Hardesty takes readers on a personal odyssey into the afterlife, which he experienced through visitations from deceased loved ones-and pets-while in a dream state. He explores the nature of death as well as life after death in the context of familial relationships. Highlighting themes such as grief, guilt, hope, and love, the book delves into the continuation of relationships in the mysterious realm of the hereafter, culminating in an extraordinary journey to the Kingdom of Heaven. The visitations the author has experienced have been crystal clear and have made perfect sense, and the information he's gleaned has served as a warning, provided reassurance or conveyed important information. Take a fantastic and spiritual journey that reveals a glimpse of the beyond - all while learning lessons on how to live here on Earth.
