Enslaved Africans resisted their treatment through running away, armed uprisings, silent sabotage, cultural retention, and exploiting their enslavers' beliefs. These methods reflected both active and passive forms of resistance aimed at asserting their humanity and autonomy. The different strategies allowed them to cope with their oppression while striving for freedom.
