More about the book
The Stono Rebellion of 1739 highlights a pivotal moment in American history when Kongolese slaves revolted against their oppressors, seeking freedom in Spanish Florida. Armed and united, they initially succeeded in killing several white colonists while rallying for liberty. However, the rebellion was swiftly suppressed, leading to severe repercussions for the surviving rebels and the implementation of the oppressive Negro Act. This legislation reinforced white dominance and severely restricted the rights and freedoms of enslaved African Americans, setting a precedent for future slaveholding societies.
