356. Bacon's Rebellion

In early colonial Virginia, indentured servitude was the dominant form of labor. However, as more and more indentured servants completed their contracts and demanded land, planters grew concerned about the growing number of landless, disgruntled men. After Bacon's Rebellion in 1676, planters turned to African slavery as a way to secure a labor force that could never gain freedom.
