Product details The Jamaica Question

The Jamaica Question

John Tenniel

'The Jamaica Question', 1865. The white planter asks Am not I a Man and Brother, Too, Mr. Stiggins? Punch shows a sullen black worker being led away from his plantation by a sanctimonious Baptist Minister who is certainly not inclined to enter into any theological discussion with his white brother, the plantation owner or manager. In October 1865, black workers in Jamaica staged an uprising, beginning at Morant Bay about 20 miles from Kingston. The discontent amongst the black population had been fuelled by the intervention and agitation of the Baptist ministers who had promoted the view that distress and poverty amongst the workers was due to the misgovernment of the island's rulers. From Punch, or the London Charivari, Decmber 23, 1865.
