Nat Turner's Slave Rebellion, 1831
Left to right, a woman pleads for the lives of her children, Mr. Travers killed by his slave, Mr. Barrow defending himself while his wife escapes. Nat Turner's Slave Rebellion took place in Southampton County, Virginia, in August 1831, led by Nat Turner. Rebel slaves killed from 55 to 65 people, at least 51 being white. The rebellion was put down within a few days, but Turner survived in hiding for more than two months afterwards. When found, he was tried, convicted, sentenced to death, hanged and possibly beheaded. The state executed 56 slaves accused of being part of the rebellion, and many non-participant slaves were punished in the frenzy. Approximately 120 slaves and free blacks were murdered by militias and mobs in the area. State legislatures passed new laws prohibiting education of slaves and free black people, restricting rights of assembly and other civil liberties for free black people, and requiring white ministers to be present at all worship services.
