10 St. 33 Min, 4 Jul 1799 Jahr - The New York Gradual Emancipation "start date"
Beschreibung:
Earlier in 1779, New York Officials said that any child that was born after this day (July 4 1799) would be free but have to work as indentured slaves until they were young adults. This law helped James eventually become free and go to the lengths he did in improving his education, and promoting the abolition of slavery.
