Act X- All people except Africans can have guns.
Act X took guns away from africans, seperated them from whites, and made it so they couldn't hunt.

Anthony wins in court vs. a white man
This is a big deal because it shows that at that time Anthony did have a chance to be prosperous and win against white people. He had an actual 'high' spot in society and owned two slaves. It also shows that only one or two laws had been put into place at that time.This was court case, document x. -
Act XII-If your mother was a slave then you're a slave.
It's yet another law against Africans. The laws were starting to build up at this time. This was also a big deal because all Africans are being affected and now slavery's a travelling thing and you can't just end it when you give birth. -
Act I- Slaves can be killed
This is yet another law against Africans. It says that slaves can be killed. It's also a big deal because now Anthony can kill his slaves if he wanted and all slaves are at the mercy of their owner. -
Act VII-At age 12 slaves become tythable
The slaves are being pushed around some more and by now they have almost no rights. It also made it so familys can be separated when the kids turn 12. They are also considered property. It continued to make slaves fearful. -
Anthony's kids by now
Anthony's dead, but his kids are not by now. They have had their inherated land taken by force or they have been forced to sell most of it. They are lowly and not well-to-do like their father was, but they are not slaves. By this time slaves have almost no rights and the free Africans are very discriminated.
