- Description:
- Encyclopedia article about slave women. As was true in all southern states, slave women played an integral part in Georgia's colonial and antebellum history. Scholars are beginning to pay more attention to issues of gender in their study of slavery in the Old South and are finding that female slaves faced additional burdens and even more challenges than did some male slaves.
