Slavery during the antebellum period in the United States did not allow the African American slaves to receive a legal education. The laws and restrictions caused the slaves to ï¬nd other methods in which to educate their young and themselves.
Most of the captured slaves were executed; a few survived to be sold to markets in the West Indies. In response to the rebellion, the South Carolina legislature passed the Negro Act of 1740 restricting slave assembly, education, and movement. It also enacted a 10-year moratorium against importing African slaves, and established penalties against slaveholders ' harsh treatment of slaves.
