As the British Empire transforms Jamaica into a ghastly slave colony in the 17th and 18th centuries, runaway Africans disperse into the mountains and resist. These “Maroons” establish free communities and their warriors proceed to raid plantations, liberate the enslaved, and decimate British attacks on their villages.

The Maroon situation in the Caribbean and central and South America is quite interesting. These communities existed all over the Spanish Main. The French and Spanish slavers would often rather than punish the more problematic Slaves instead often let them escape and go live in these communities. It was a way to avoid rebellions and was very successful. It lead to a Plantation population that was timid as all the aggression had fled to the Mountains with the runaways. Many towns in Central and South America aswell as the Caribbean were founded in this way.

Shows how when you unify you can surmount impossible odds. The maroons divisions between each other stopped them having a full blown revolution like in Haiti.

@ducane1979 5 месяцев назад

Within approx 18 months of Jamaica's most effective rebellion (i.e. Christmas rebellion, aka: Baptist Wars) ...the British quickly abolish slavery. Plus the full revolution by Haiti , which is right next door to Jamaica...was also a major factor. Your right, .. These maroon and enslaved revolts had the colonial powers at high risk & on the back foot (i.e. at this time remember a very large percentage of the UK's national GDP was strictly dependent on the steady income produced from slavery - they were more vulnerable than our school history classes like to inform us).. If the maroon & enslaved had communicated & united that bit further (to recognise the enemy was negotiating because they'd run out of options). It would of been a full blown Jamaican revolution, just like Haiti..

The first wave of Irish immigrants occurred in the early 17th century, Irish emigrant principally sailors, servants, and merchants. Many of the poorer emigrants were displaced Gaelic-Irish and Anglo-Irish Catholics, as well as convicts who were indentured servants. The extent of Irish immigration to the Caribbean and Jamaica is so prolific that a staggering twenty five percent of Jamaican citizens claim Irish ancestry, the second-largest reported ethnic group in Jamaica after African ancestry. Ireland has a long shared history with Jamaica. Scottish prisoners of war from both the Cromwellian wars and the Jacobite rebellions were exiled to Jamaica, as were some of the Covenanters. Many of these exiles were indentured servants working alongside slaves of African descent in the sugar plantations.

Ever thought about doing one on the norman conquest of Ireland? The visual distiction of the gaels with their strange looking clothing like the léine (that the irish were known for at the time)and crois belts and cúlan haircuts(long fringes with back shaved or front shaved with mullets and mustaches and the normans with their buzz cuts and v shaved out of the back of their scalp. The normans had knights and armor, the irish saw it as a weakness. It was a dramatic time in irish history of change and you would have known quickly who was native and who was not visually on the streets of dublin. The irish were not united and saw no unified irish identity but more so family fought family, clan warfare and so the normans with their knights exploited this but what is more interesting is how quickly the normans embraced gaelic culture and became 'as irish as the irish themselves'

There is plenty of historical information about Jamaica! I'm assuming you mean you don't know about your African ancestors history before they were sent to Jamaica. That would be many tribes and cultures of West and Central Africa. But that's irrelevant. You can follow HOMETEAM HISTORY and take a DNA test.

It's unbelievable how those who inflicted brutal punishments on the enslaved could do so in good conscience. The story of maroons in the United States is also a very fascinating one.

@HistoryDose 9 месяцев назад

The very account I quoted goes on to acknowledge that the punishments seem harsh even to him, but he thinks them still necessary. Not fun to read about, but I thought it was important to share the ghastly brutality of slavery in order to understand the Maroons and their motivations. Some of their raids explicitly targeted former masters who had been uniquely brutal to them. Right, US Maroons made their homes in the impenetrable swamp lands. Could be a cool video down the line.

@Clive697 9 месяцев назад

True, but slavery was a legal trade and was worldwide, including in Sub-Saharan Africa where these Jamaican slaves and Maroons were sold by black slavers to the British. The black slaver tribes were more brutal, some cannibalising their slaves.

@jameskirkpatrick5569 9 месяцев назад

@CliveofEngland that is true. However others brutality and barbaric acts is no excuse to defend the brutality done by your nation or people. We can and should be critical of our own histories and wrong doings in the name of our countries because we want to be better than those barbaric acts.

@Clive697 9 месяцев назад

@@jameskirkpatrick5569 Hi James. I didn't defend anyone's slavery, just commented that the situation at the time was much more nuanced than this video suggested. Sadly, it's a modern problem that anyone pointing out things are not always black and white (pun intended) is accused of taking sides. The black slavers objectively were more brutal than the Europeans or Americans but I agree the latter were brutal at times. Cheerio.

@jameskirkpatrick5569 9 месяцев назад

@CliveofEngland I understand I would say the argument you made, you made in good faith because you understand the nuance. I will say however that argument is also used by people who wish to push terrible crimes and things done by our own countries under the rug, have no accountability for the conditions we have left these people and places in for centuries following with their continual exploitation for our own wealth and national interest, then say its okay because others at the time around the world did some things worse.

Another terrible fate that befalls the Maroons in Nova Scotia was their treatment at the hands of American loyalists who migrated to the Maritimes after the revolution. Maroons refused to be used as cheap labour to hack farms out of the forest for British landlords and loyalists attacked and drove them from the black loyalist settlement of Shelburne until they eventually agreed to settle Sierra Leone by John Clarkson.
