Intimations of Liberation: Prelude to Freedom

  • Delroy A. Reid-Salmon

摘要

Chapter two continues the genealogical dimension by examining how revolts pave the way for emancipation throughout the British Empire; as well as engaging the Freedom Fighters’ response to the governments’ and abolitionists’ approaches to emancipation from structural and systemic oppression. By detailing and critically analyzing the uprisings of resistance in Barbados and Guyana, a commonality about their desire for liberation grounds resistance deeper within God’s promise. The signs, or intimations, of resistance are present through both discourse and the practice of resisting, as these revolts reshape public policy and change the political task from descriptive and analytical to constructive. On that note of historical congruency, emancipation becomes a reality through the activism of the Sam Sharpe Revolt.
