Its hard to see any actual evidence as the 'Masters' tried to keep everything a secret. But I believe some slaves played small pranks on their master as an act of defiance, they would tamper with goods etc. A handful would stand up to their Master and say no but this was rare as they were beaten senseless afterwards. I hoped this helped a little bit(:
