Also published as a loose print by the African American press, Robert and Thomas Hamilton, possibly the first black press to publish separate prints. Bitter anti-slavery print depicting a group of slaves about to whip their white overseer, who has been bound to a tree on the plantation grounds. Before the overseer, the male slave holding the whipping lash boldly pulls up his sleeve as the slave next to him takes off his hat in a mock gesture of respect. Smiling men, women, and children of all ages stand, sit, and lean on a fence, surrounding the overseer in anticipation of his whipping. Fels Afro-Americana Image Project, Resistance.
