    Brooding over bloody revenge : enslaved women's lethal resistance (2023)
    Cambridge : Cambridge University Press
    Details
    ISBN: 9781009276818 , 9781009276849
    Language: English
    Pages: 1 online resource (247 pages) , illustrations (black and white), map (black and white), digital, PDF file(s)

    DDC: 305.40973
    Keywords: Enslaved women History ; Direct action History
    Abstract: From the colonial through the antebellum era, enslaved women in the US used lethal force as the ultimate form of resistance. By amplifying their voices and experiences, Brooding over Bloody Revenge strongly challenges assumptions that enslaved women only participated in covert, non-violent forms of resistance, when in fact they consistently seized justice for themselves and organized toward revolt. Nikki M. Taylor expertly reveals how women killed for deeply personal instances of injustice committed by their owners. The stories presented, which span centuries and legal contexts, demonstrate that these acts of lethal force were carefully pre-meditated. Enslaved women planned how and when their enslavers would die, what weapons and accomplices were necessary, and how to evade capture in the aftermath. Original and compelling, Brooding Over Bloody Revenge presents a window into the lives and philosophies of enslaved women who had their own ideas about justice and how to achieve it.
