INTRODUCTION: On August 1, 1838, the day of the complete abolition of slavery in the British Caribbean, the newly free members of the Mount Zion mission in Jamaica paraded to celebrate their freedom. They marched three abreast to the church and schoolhouse: first men, then children, and finally women. On arrival outside the church, the congregants were met by their minister and his wife, who read out phrases adorning banners carried in the parade. These slogans predicted a bright liberal future for the island. "Wages are better than whips," stated one. A second read, "We will work for our wives and children." "No Bond but the Law," read a third. Each was greeted by "three hearty cheers."'
