Slave resistance took many forms, including acts of rebellion, sabotage, escape, and everyday acts of defiance. The nature and extent of slave resistance varied depending on the time period, location, and specific conditions of slavery.

One of the primary objectives of most modes of resistance was to assert some level of control and autonomy over their own lives. This could take the form of small acts of resistance, such as feigning illness or breaking tools, to more overt forms of rebellion, such as organized revolts or running away.

In many cases, the ultimate goal of resistance was to secure freedom and escape the bonds of slavery. However, resistance also served as a means of preserving cultural traditions, maintaining a sense of community and identity, and challenging the dehumanizing aspects of slavery.

Overall, slave resistance was a complex and multifaceted phenomenon that reflected the resilience and determination of enslaved individuals to resist their oppression and assert their humanity.
