AP WORLD HISTORY-Final presentation script

Argument 1 Script

The implementation of slave codes in American colonies from 1607 to 1754 established a strict racial hierarchy and promoted white supremacy, shaping colonial identity. In Virginia, labor shortages created a diverse population, leading to laws that fueled animosity against blacks. This dependence on slave labor necessitated the enforcement of slave codes. These codes dehumanized enslaved individuals, allowed for harsh punishments, and justified treating them poorly for economic growth. Daniel Horsmanden's account of the 1741 New York Conspiracy illustrates white New Yorkers' fears of losing their jobs to enslaved people, intensifying white people's need for racial unity. Olaudah Equiano, an enslaved person, reveals the harsh treatment he experienced and how he wished for death to relieve him. This relationship established an oppressive hierarchy that solidified colonial identity. Overall, slave codes, which helped suppress black uprisings, also facilitated a strict racial hierarchy, encouraging white supremacy as justification for racial injustice, motivating unity among white people to maintain a strong colonial identity.
