mar 1, 1825 - Slave rebellion (Nat Turner)
Description:
Turner's actions set off a massacre of up to 200 Black people and a new wave of oppressive legislation prohibiting the education, movement, and assembly of enslaved people. The rebellion also stiffened pro-slavery, anti-abolitionist convictions that persisted in that region until the American Civil War (1861–65).Added to timeline:
