Paper Summary:

This paper considers the history of black slave boxing and what this activity provided to plantation owners and to slaves. The paper notes that for the slaves, there were benefits in terms of special privileges, but there would also be added burdens. Just as many poor blacks today take up boxing as a way out of poverty, so many black slaves took up boxing to gain advantages, even to the point of being manumitted or freed in some cases.
