The Untold History of The Free Blacks in America

Sunday, June 23, 2024

This video delves into the deep and complex internal cultural differences among Black Americans throughout history. From the earliest days of colonial America to the post-Revolutionary War era, we explore the various factors that have shaped these distinctions, including:

Urbanization and regional distribution
Education and economic achievements
Rates of crime and acculturation
The significant divide between free and enslaved Blacks

Key historical milestones highlighted include:

The presence of free Blacks as early as the 17th century, even before slavery was formally established.
The evolution from indentured servitude to perpetual slavery started in 1661.

The rise of notable free Black individuals and communities who achieved remarkable cultural and educational advancements long before most Blacks were free or literate.

The impact of the American Revolution on the population of free Blacks led to significant increases in the northern states and even parts of the South.

The geographical shifts in the Black population following the invention of the cotton gin in 1793.

Join us as we uncover the stories of influential Black figures like Gustavus Vassa and Benjamin Banneker and examine how their contributions reflect the broader cultural advancements within the Black community. This historical journey provides a deeper understanding of the diverse and dynamic cultural landscape among Black Americans.
