Sobre IBD

Black Rebellion: Five Slave Revolts by Thomas Wentworth Higginson is a compelling historical account of resistance and courage among enslaved Africans in America. Drawn from Higginson’s larger work Travelers and Outlaws: Episodes in American History, this volume vividly recounts five major slave uprisings, including the stories of Nat Turner, Denmark Vesey, and other figures who dared to challenge the brutal institution of slavery.Higginson, an abolitionist, soldier, and reformer, combines historical research with moral insight to shed light on the resilience, intelligence, and determination of those who fought for their freedom. His sympathetic perspective and detailed storytelling make this an essential work for understanding the complex history of slavery and resistance in the United States.Black Rebellion stands as both a historical document and a tribute to the enduring human desire for liberty and justice.
