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.
Some slaves gained their confidence in manhood from possession of a special ancestry, status, or skill. William Elliott, the renowned Carolina sports man, had one such slave named May who was as expert a harpoonist of devil fish as Melville's Queequeg was of whales.
