A manumission report reveals unequal terms of freedom

📅 15 Mei 1887 📍 Brazil

A Redempção’s album recorded 47 manumissions in Cristina with differing terms: some unconditional, others tied to years of service or valuation arrangements. These varied conditions caution against treating every manumission as equivalent. The paper’s listing preserved the formal acts while also exposing how owners could retain leverage over freed people’s labor and time.
