By Marshall Hall

Book Overview

""The Twofold Slavery of the United States: With a Project of Self-Emancipation"" is a book written by Marshall Hall that explores the issue of slavery in the United States. The book delves into the two forms of slavery that existed in the country at the time: the enslavement of African Americans and the subjugation of women. Hall argues that both forms of slavery are interconnected and that the fight for freedom must include the liberation of both groups.The book provides a historical overview of slavery in the United States, including the transatlantic slave trade and the development of the institution of slavery in the southern states. Hall also discusses the various ways in which enslaved individuals resisted their captivity, from acts of rebellion to the creation of underground networks to help others escape.In addition to exploring the history of slavery in the United States, Hall proposes a plan for self-emancipation. He argues that enslaved individuals and women must take control of their own liberation, rather than relying on the benevolence of their oppressors. He suggests that this can be achieved through education, community building, and nonviolent resistance.Overall, ""The Twofold Slavery of the United States"" is a thought-provoking book that examines the complex issue of slavery in America. It offers a unique perspective on the struggle for freedom and provides a blueprint for self-emancipation that is still relevant today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
