| | Chronology on the History of Slavery 1619 to 1789 |
 | | Even the most abstract ideals of the [German] SS, such as their intense German nationalism and anti-Semitism, were often absorbed by the old [concentration camp] inmates-a phenomenon observed among the politically well-educated and even among the Jews themselves. |  | | Slaves are branded after a second escape attempt. |  | | The conscious deportation of political prisoners has to be distinguished from impersonal transactions in the fairs and market-places of Africa. |

| | CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Slavery and Christianity |
 | | But the number of these slaves was always very small in comparison with that of the Christian captives reduced to slavery in Mussulman countries, particularly in the Barbary states from Tripoli to the Atlantic coast of Morocco. |  | | It is the scope of this article to show what Christianity has done for slaves and against slavery, first in the Roman world, next in that society which was the result of the barbarian invasions, and lastly in the modern world. |  | | But many slaves who were Christians had pagan masters to whom this sentiment of fraternity was unknown, and who sometimes exhibited that cruelty of which moralists and poets so often speak. |

 | | From a very young age she is beaten, threatened, and told terrifying tales of what happened to other slaves who escaped. |  | | Many of these "emancipations" have been exposed as frauds, some perpetuated by the very southern Sudanese rebels whose people are frequently preyed upon. |  | | The Sudanese government has been extremely reluctant to investigate Nazer's claims, however, and given its obvious stake in wanting damning evidence of the country's slave trade refuted, this silence certainly lends credence to Nazer's story. |

| | LIFE OF A SLAVE |
 | | The former slaves knew that land was the key to survival. |  | | A number of slave rebellions, including one led by Nat Turner in 1831, which involved several free and literate blacks and which he claimed was divinely inspired, had underscored for whites the need to maintain tight control over the literacy of blacks and the tenor of their religious beliefs. |  | | Although every southern state had outlawed the teaching of reading and writing to enslaved blacks (and in some cases, free blacks as well), there is considerable evidence that some whites defied the law. |

 | | rom 1936 to 1938, over 2,300 former slaves from across the American South were interviewed by writers and journalists under the aegis of the Works Progress Administration. |  | | These former slaves, most born in the last years of the slave regime or during the Civil War, provided first-hand accounts of their experiences on plantations, in cities, and on small farms. |  | | Read together, they offer a sweeping composite view of slavery in North America, allowing us to explore some of the most compelling themes of nineteenth-century slavery, including labor, resistance and flight, family life, relations with masters, and religious belief. |

 | | "In the days of slavery, there were those slaves who lived on the plantation and [there] were those slaves that lived in the house. |  | | Earlier in the day, a senior State Department official had a piece of advice for Belafonte, similar to a suggestion made to Powell after he sang in a musical skit with fellow foreign ministers during the annual meeting of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations in Brunei this past July. |  | | In a scathing radio interview Tuesday in San Diego, Belafonte blasted Powell in racially charged comments that compared the secretary of state to a plantation slave who moves into the slave owner's house and says only things that will please his master. |
