Slavery and Freedom in the Caribbean explores the experiences of enslaved Africans and their struggle to win freedom in the islands of the Caribbean. Gelien Matthews emphasizes the integral role blacks played in loosening the chains of slavery, by forcing their enslavers to make ever-increasing compromises, which ultimately led to the slaves’ total freedom.
