If the sight is working you need to answer the questions on Health and Work Ethic, Diet, Economic Drawbacks of Slavery, Maronage, Petite Maronage, and Grand Maronage. That should be on the handout from class.
Now, if the Florida website is down, and I blame the Floridian Department of Education, then you are to do this second option.
Use the following sites.
Use the "There were No Docile slaves" and "Women Resisted" Links. Be sure to read all the info on the sides of those pages as well as the main body text.
A. Use info from both sites to build a chart of examples of "covert" and "overt forms of slave resistance. Remember that covert means "secret" or "covered up" while overt means "Open" or "Obvious"
B. Use the second site to answer these questions. Make sure that you are answering them in your own words.
1. Why were there more slave revolts in the Caribbean and Brazil than in the American South?
2. Why were native-born Africans more likely to revolt than born in America?
I am sorry that the website did not cooperate the other day but hopefully it will work out today.
Good luck
