1 janv. 1667 - Slave Law
Description:
Virginia lawmakers say baptism does not bring freedom to blacks. The statute is passed because some slaves used their statuses as Christians in the 1640s and 1650s to argue for freedom for a child. Legislators also encourage slave owners to Christianize their enslaved men, women, and children.Ajouté au bande de temps:
