They claim it was also a complexion thing, needless to say that some were by-products of the master working in the house. You stated that 90% of rebellions were planned by them. Albeit they made good spies. Please enlighten

this is what I do know

I ask because I see the term "house negro" being equated to the term "Uncle Tom" and I was wondering if I was missing something here...

I think - did I miss something - is this one of those double meaning threads? </div></div>

no this is not a double meaning thread, this is a legitimate question...

If someone exemplifies the behavior of a described "house negro" as defined in history books, in this COMPUTER day and age, then I guess the situation would warrant itself. Same as how I call my boss, Ms. Daisy.

It is up to each individual to fight them case and prove them point.

I was not arguing against you just interested in this new point of view. You said 'Carribean History' and 90%.
