Like their northern neighbors, Rhode Islanders bought and sold slaves and supplies that sustained plantations throughout the Americas; however, nowhere else was this business so important. During the colonial period trade with West Indian planters provided Rhode Islanders with molasses, the key ingredient for their number one export: rum. More than 60 percent of all the slave ships that left North America left from Rhode Island. During the antebellum period Rhode Islanders were the leading producers of "negro cloth," a coarse wool-cotton material made especially for enslaved blacks in the American South. Clark-Pujara draws on the documents of the state, the business, organizational, and personal records of their enslavers, and the few first-hand accounts left by enslaved and free black Rhode Islanders to reconstruct their lived experiences. The business of slavery encouraged slaveholding, slowed emancipation and led to circumscribed black freedom. Enslaved and free black people pushed back against their bondage and the restrictions placed on their freedom. It is convenient, especially for northerners, to think of slavery as southern institution. The erasure or marginalization of the northern black experience and the centrality of the business of slavery to the northern economy allows for a dangerous fiction--that North has no history of racism to overcome. But we cannot afford such a delusion if we are to truly reconcile with our past." --publisher description. 588 0 Print version record. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 650 0 Slavery|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85123314|zRhode Island|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ names/n79022912-781|xHistory.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh99005024 650 0 Slave trade|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85123311|zRhode Island|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ names/n79022912-781|xHistory.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh99005024 650 0 Enslaved persons|xEmancipation|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh85123317|zRhode Island|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n79022912-781|xHistory. |0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh99005024 650 0 Enslaved persons|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85123347|zRhode Island|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ names/n79022912-781|xSocial conditions.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2001008850 650 0 Free African Americans|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh94005575|zRhode Island|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/names/n79022912-781|xHistory.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh99005024 650 7 Slavery.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1120426 650 7 History.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/958235 650 7 Slave trade.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1120405 650 7 Enslaved persons|xEmancipation.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/1120540 650 7 Enslaved persons|xEmancipation|xBritish colonies.|2fast |0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1120542 650 7 Enslaved persons|xEmancipation|xFrench colonies.|2fast |0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1120546 650 7 Enslaved persons.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1120522 650 7 Social conditions.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1919811 650 7 Free African Americans.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/ fast/933834 650 7 Race relations.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1086509 651 0 Rhode Island|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ n79022912|xRace relations|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh00007552|xHistory.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh99005024 651 7 Rhode Island.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1204599 655 4 Electronic books. 655 7 History.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1411628 776 08 |iPrint version:|aClark-Pujara, Christy.|tDark Work : The Business of Slavery in Rhode Island.|dNew York : NYU Press, ©2016|z9781479870424|w(OCoLC)926743484 830 0 Early American places.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ names/no2011058929 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=1084152|zOnline eBook via EBSCO.
