Black Yankees: The Development Of An Afroamerican Subculture In Eighteenthcentury New England,Used
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
This book examines the development of an AfroAmerican subculture in eighteenthcentury New England. Piersen concerns himself not with the machinery of slave control or the political and social disabilities of bondage, but with the processes of cultural change and creation from the black bondsman's point of view. What was it like to be an African immigrant in colonial New England? What attitudes and assumptions underlay the AfroAmerican response to Yankee culture? What does the development within the confines of a predominantly white and ethnocentric New England of an AfroAmerican folk culture in religion, public rituals, folk arts and crafts, social mores, and daily behavior say about the creation of American culture?On the face of it, the master class called the tunes and slaves danced the beat. Blacks who were taken into New England's bondage were clearly engulfed in a pervasive, narrowminded EuroAmerican society that had no interest in fostering AfroAmerican autonomy. The New England experience was often cruel, and the numbers alone suggest it was among the most unequal of black/white cultural contacts in the New World. Nonetheless, despite the strictures of bondage, the black Yankees of eighteenthcentury New England created a sustaining folk culture of their own.
