  • War and Slavery in the Texas Borderlands, 1700-1840
    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Cruel Embrace: War and Slavery in the Texas Borderlands, 1700-1840 A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in History by Max Flomen 2018 © Copyright by Max Flomen 2018 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Cruel Embrace: War and Slavery in the Texas Borderlands, 1700-1840 by Max Flomen Doctor of Philosophy in History University of California, Los Angeles, 2018 Professor Stephen A. Aron, Chair This dissertation examines the role of slaving during the encounter between indigenous societies and Euro-American empires in the Texas borderlands from 1700 to 1840. Historians have generally overlooked the structures that bound continental and Atlantic slave systems together. In this multipolar borderland pastoral and plantation modes of production conflicted and comingled, drawing all participants into a “cruel embrace” rife with possibilities for exploitation, destruction, and reinvention. The dissertation charts the formation of French and Spanish colonies in Louisiana and Texas during the eighteenth century, where forced, long-distance transfers placed indigenous and African populations into plantation and mission regimes. Within the indigenous world of the Southern Plains, epidemics, firearms, and horses catalyzed the emergence of powerful equestrian societies. Slaving figured prominently in the confrontation of these band societies and European empires, and captives themselves assumed significant roles during a period of protracted inter-cultural warfare. Following Mexican independence in 1821, ii the arrival of Native American and Anglo-American colonists introduced new contenders for control of land and labour in this fractious borderland. During the ensuing conflicts of the 1830s and 1840s, new multi-ethnic cohorts emerged to contest the expansion of plantation slavery.

  • From Captives to Slaves: Commodifying Indian Women in the Borderlands
    From Captives to Slaves: Commodifying Indian Women in the Borderlands Juliana Barr On July 21, 1774, fray Miguel Santa María y Silva, the leading Franciscan missionary stationed in the mission district of Los Adaes on the border between Texas and Loui- siana, reported to the Spanish viceroy in Mexico City on his trip through that region as part of a delegation seeking renewed peace with powerful Wichita and Caddo na- tions. In 1769, in the aftermath of the Seven Years’ War, Spain had officially established administrative control of the former French province of Louisiana, and the mission to reconfirm Wichita and Caddo alliances sought to represent the new unity of Span- iards and Frenchmen in Louisiana and Texas. Many, however, could not put aside past rivalries so easily, and Santa María y Silva was no exception. Rather than detail this first peace council sought by the Spanish government with leading Indian nations, the Franciscan spent page after page lamenting an “infamous traffic of the flesh” he had witnessed being carried on by Frenchmen living in and among Caddoan Indian villages along the Red River. To discredit Frenchmen, Santa María y Silva could have deplored the skyrocketing numbers of enslaved Africans and African Americans in Louisiana by the 1770s. Or, given the hostile relations between the Spanish government and many independent and powerful Indian nations in the lower Plains, the missionary could have bemoaned the fate of Spanish women and children from New Mexico who had been taken captive by Indians armed with guns obtained from French traders. Yet, strikingly, the traffic in humans on which Santa María y Silva chose to focus was one in Indian women and their children, captured by Indian warriors in the southern Plains and Texas and traded east as slaves to French buyers in Louisiana—women thus consigned to “per- dition” by “such cruel captivity,” grieved Santa María y Silva.1 Given the growing proliferation of studies of Indian slavery, notably the works of James F.
