2 juill. 1822 - Denmark Vesey Executed
Description:
Denmark Vesey was an African American freedman in Charleston, South Carolina, who planned a major slave rebellion in 1822. His plot was discovered before it could be executed, leading to the arrest and execution of Vesey and thirty-five others, and it heightened fears of slave uprisings among white Southerners, leading to stricter enforcement of slavery laws and restrictions on African American populations.Ajouté au bande de temps:
