We can use primary and secondary sources to analyze the resistance of enslaved peoples in order to gain firsthand knowledge of their motivations at the time, although neither source provides a modern examination of history.

Using a combination of primary and secondary sources allows us to gain a more comprehensive understanding of the resistance of enslaved peoples in the Americas. Primary sources, such as slave narratives, court records, and letters, provide direct accounts and insights into the experiences and motivations of enslaved individuals at the time. Secondary sources, such as scholarly articles and books, offer analysis and interpretations of historical events and movements based on a range of primary sources.

By examining both primary and secondary sources, we can piece together a more nuanced and contextual understanding of the resistance strategies employed by enslaved peoples, as well as the broader socio-political and economic factors that shaped their experiences. This approach allows us to critically analyze the resistance of enslaved peoples in the Americas from multiple perspectives and consider the impact of power dynamics, cultural influences, and historical contexts on their acts of resistance.
