Definition: Black-boot refers to a specific type of shoe that was worn by slaves in ancient African societies, often made of leather. The term was used to signify the slave owner's privilege, as it could be said with pride that they owned the right to wear black leather footwear for protection from the sun and elements outside their home or place of work. This custom likely arose in response to a need to protect slaves from harsh weather conditions and to maintain their physical strength.
