In this episode, Lucas and Luna explore the often-overlooked period of Maroon autonomy between the Treaty of 1739 and the Second Maroon War of 1795. They discuss how the Leeward Maroons, led by Cudjoe, established a de facto independent state in the Cockpit Country, with their own governance, land rights, and treaty-granted autonomy. The conversation delves into the Maroons' role in hunting runaway slaves, the tensions with British authorities, and the cultural flowering of Maroon communities, including the development of the abeng language and Kromanti dance. They also examine the economic and social structures of Maroon towns like Accompong and Trelawny Town, and the gradual erosion of their rights that led to conflict. This episode sheds light on a unique period of Black self-governance in the 18th-century Caribbean. #Maroons #Jamaica #CockpitCountry #Accompong #TrelawnyTown #Cudjoe #Abeng #Kromanti #MaroonTreaty #LeewardMaroons #SecondMaroonWar #18thCentury #CaribbeanHistory #SlaveryResistance #SelfGovernance #BlackHistory #History #FexingoHistory Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
