Slave Rebellion

I find it irrational for people to believe that human beings can be subjected to slavery and they not experience any type of resistance or protest. Many people believed that the slaves were happy during the slave period. They had shelter, food and given basic needs. The revolts showed the desperation many felt to get away from this evil institution that the white man had placed them under. Slaves committed suicide, self-mutilation, and in desperate times ran away. No human being could willingly endure the brutality with which the white slave masters treated their slaves.
