1. Discuss with reference the ways in which slaves were treated as well as the
ways in which they reacted to their situation at the Cape during the VOC
period. (40)
Version 1
The Harsh Reality of Slavery at the Cape (VOC Period)
The VOC era at the Cape Colony (1652-1795) was built on the backs of enslaved
people. Their treatment was brutal, but their resistance was persistent.
Treatment of Slaves:
• Commodification: Slaves were seen as property, bought, sold, and inherited.
Their lives held little value compared to their economic worth [Source: South
African History Online - The Early Cape Slave Trade].
• Brutal Labor: They toiled long hours in agriculture, construction, and
domestic service, often under harsh conditions with meager rations [Source:
SAHO - Dutch settlement, the Indian Ocean slave trade and slavery at the
Cape].
• Corporal Punishment: Whipping, branding, and even torture were used to
control slaves and deter escape attempts [Source: SAHO - Dutch settlement, the
Indian Ocean slave trade and slavery at the Cape].
• Family Separation: The slave trade tore families apart, with individuals sold
and scattered across the colony [Source: ResearchGate - Slaves and Free
Blacks in VOC Cape Town, 1652–1795].
Slave Resistance:
• Escape: Running away was a constant threat for slave owners. Slaves fled to
the wilderness or sought refuge with indigenous communities [Source: SAHO -
Dutch settlement, the Indian Ocean slave trade and slavery at the Cape].
