Black History Is American History Bhm 2009ojohnson1
This is the Black History Month 2009 presentation shown during this years event. These slides were also compiled in the Education Booklet provided at the event as well.
Filipinos thought that the coming of the Americans was an immediate step toward Independence. That the Americans fought Spain to give the Filipinos their freedom. Truth was, Filipinos were winning the war against Spain in many fronts outside Manila. America intervened presumably to help prepare Philippine government rule on its own. But after many years, the Americans became the new colonizers; the Philippines became economically dependent on America but the fruits of progress went only to a few and to the many American corporations that flourished in the Philippines. Filipinos, inferior in military arms, used many ways to fight colonialism. One way, the Sakdal approach and the other, through Arts and Literature. We can learn many things about the character of the Filipinos through his struggle for independence.

It is in your power to torment the God-cursed slaveholders, that they would be glad to
let you go free. . . . But you are a patient people. You act as though you were made for
the special use of these devils. You act as though your daughters were born to pamper
the lusts of your masters and overseers. And worse than all, you tamely submit, while
your lords tear your wives from your embraces, and defile them before your eyes. In
the name of God we ask, are you men? . . . Heaven, as with a voice of thunder, calls on
you to arise from the dust. Let your motto be Resistance! Resistance! Resistance! no
oppressed people have ever secured their Liberty without resistance.
Henry Highland Garnet, “Address to the Slaves of the United States of America”
When black abolitionist Henry Highland Garnet spoke the
words printed above at the National Convention of Colored
Citizens, held in Buffalo, New York, on August 16, 1843, he
caused a tremendous stir among those assembled. In 1824, when
he was a boy, Garnet had escaped with his family from slavery in Maryland. Thereafter
he received an excellent education while growing up in New York. By the 1840s, he had
become a powerful speaker. But some of the delegates in his audience pointed out that he
was far away from the slaves he claimed to address. Others believed he risked encouraging
a potentially disastrous slave revolt. Therefore, by a narrow margin, the convention
refused to endorse his speech.
In fact, Garnet had not called for slave revolt. He had rhetorically told slaves, “We do not
advise you to attempt a revolution with the sword, because it would be INEXPEDIENT.
Your numbers are too small, and moreover the rising spirit of the age, and the spirit of the
gospel, are opposed to war and bloodshed.” Instead, he advocated a general strike. This,
he contended, would put the onus of initiating violence on masters. Nevertheless, Garnet’s
speech reflected a new militancy among black and white abolitionists that shaped the
antislavery movement during the two decades before the Civil War.
This chapter investigates the causes of that militancy and explores the role of Africa ...

1. Photography album documenting the Morant Bay Rebellion,
Jamaica 1865, and more
On October 11, 1865, several hundred native Jamaicans marched into the town of Morant Bay,
the capital of the predominately sugar-growing parish of St. Thomas, to demonstrate against
injustices. Several members of the crowd, on both sides, were killed. In the days that followed,
2. the British Army was called in and over 500 people were murdered along with hundreds
wounded.
We recently acquired an album with 165 rare albumen photographs: 59 of the Morant Bay
Rebellion in Jamaica (1865), 32 photographs of the Indian Northwest Frontier Hazara Campaign
(1867-1870), and 64 others depicting Malta, Ireland, Guernsey, and elsewhere. The prints are
primarily by unidentified amateur photographers, although there are 8 by Samuel Bourne, 5 by
G. Sommer, 3 by William Lawrence, several by Francis Frith.
This post will describe the 59 photographs relating to the 1865 Morant Bay Rebellion and future
posts will deal with the other sections. The album’s careful compilation includes detailed notes
3. of the people, places, and dates relevant to each photograph. It may be the work of a surgeon in
the British Army, Alexander Dudgeon Gulland, MD Edinburgh University, who appears in the
album. Appointed Staff Assistant Surgeon in 1854, he served with the 6th Foot which was in
Jamaica in 1865 and is listed as having been in China from 1860-62 and Hazara in the Northwest
Frontier in 1868 (See: Hart’s Army Lists and Returns Relating to Medical Officers (Army)
1854). The Jamaica section of this album begins with photographs of the Morant Bay military
base including a view from the Surgeon’s Quarters and general views of the area to set the scene.
My thanks to Dr. Mimi Sheller, Professor of Sociology, Director, Center for Mobilities Research
and Policy Department of Culture and Communication Drexel University, for the following
summary of these events.
The events at Morant Bay in 1865 followed on the heels a period of public meetings known as
the Underhill Meetings, and peaceful expression of grievances through petitions. Complaints
included a series of economic issues related to wages, land tenure, access to markets, and labor
rights; political issues related to unfair taxation, no justice in the courts, and elite-biased
government policies; and civil issues that included voting rights, and access to healthcare,
education, and land. In that sense it was not a riot so much as a social movement, which was
rejected by the Governor and finally turned to violence against the representatives of the local
government.
Here is a basic description of the facts of what took place before the government sent in military
reinforcements to “suppress” the rebellion. During a trial for trespass held in the Morant Bay
Court House on the 7th of October 1865, James Geoghagan disrupted proceedings by shouting
that the defendant should not have to pay the costs. He was ordered out of the court. When he did
not go quietly the Judge ordered his arrest. However, his sister Isabella challenged the police,
and when they got outside a “mob” including the Native Baptist deacon Paul Bogle and some of
his followers from the hamlet of Stony Gut rescued him from the police. The following day the
4. police went up to Stony Gut to arrest those involved, but the policemen were instead captured
and made to swear an oath to “cleave to the black”. To continue reading Dr. Sheller’s
description, click on the extended entry link below.
Portraits of key figures from the rebellion tell more of the story. Among them are a page of
portraits of “The Victims of the Jamaica Rebellion of 1865”, a portrait of George William
Gordon who is now considered a Jamaican national hero, portraits of unidentified Jamaican
natives, and of British Army officers. Listed among the victims are not only those who were
murdered but also those in the colonial government who were later tried for murder and
acquitted.
It is probable that these portraits were gathered after the rebellion and some may have been taken
by the only commercial studio we can identify in Jamaica at the time, run by Adolphe Duperly
(1801-1865) and taken over by his son, Armond.
5. Two small photographs of Jamaican Maroons, including one of Maroons in camouflage with
Colonel Fyfe, reflect an interesting social dynamic in the rebellion. Originally runaway slaves
who set up communities that engaged in guerrilla warfare against the British, the Maroons
eventually cooperated with the British authorities after they started to deport them and confiscate
their land in 1796. Used to suppress slave revolts until 1838, they were also used to suppress the
1865 rebellion.

On the 11th of October, the day of a local vestry meeting, several hundred people marched into
the town of Morant Bay, pillaged the police station of its weapons, and then confronted the
volunteer militia who were protecting the vestry meeting. According to Gad Heuman (1994:
xiii), “Fighting erupted between the militia and the crowd and, by the end of the day the crowd
had killed eighteen people and wounded thirty-one others. Seven members of the crowd died. In
the days which followed, bands of people in different parts of the parish killed two planters and
threatened the lives of many others.”
The crowd that marched on Morant Bay was said to have been led by Mrs. Letitia Geoghagan,
the mother of James, Isabella, and Charles; both she and one of her sons were executed following
the imposition of martial law. Here is the description in the evidence given to the Jamaica Royal
Commission, which is a significant example of the importance of women as popular leaders in
Jamaica:
Afterwards we saw them coming round the corner into the Parade, with guns and bayonets fixed,
sticks, swords, machettes, and lances; they were advancing, blowing shells and playing drums.
6. How near did they get to you before anything was done? — About 20 yards, and a woman
named Geoghagan…— Is that a person now living? — No, she is dead. What did she say or do?
— She first fired a stone, and several other women followed her, and then the men rushed right
in… Whereabouts was this woman when she threw the stone? —She was just in front of us, in
the north part of the Parade. Did she come up with the people? — She was the guide and led
them; she came up in front of them. But they did not want a guide? — She was a sort of leader.
Well, she threw the first stone? — Yes. Then other women threw stones? — Yes.
