we-are-viking:oscarspoe:For every man in your camp, there are thousands somewhere in the West Indies living under the same yoke, chained in fields, pressed on ships, sold into indenture.When they see a sitting governor protected by His Majesty’s Navy, deposed by an alliance of pirates and slaves, how many consider joining that fight?How many thousands of men will flock to Nassau, join your ranks, and help you defend it?What does a colonial power do when the men whose toil powers it lay down their shovels, take up swords, and say, “No more?”Bring down Nassau, maybe you bring it all down.James Flint Appreciation Week || favorite season@we-are-captain @we-are-pirate @we-are-scarlet-corsair @i-am-scourge-of-the-seas @we-are-swashbuckler -- source link
