The two incidents in nineteenth century involving rebellions by the black slaves include Nat Turner’s rebellion and the Amistad incident in America. In Virginia in 1831, a black slave, Nat turner led to insurrection that curdles the white people’s blood. Through this incident called The Nat Turner Rebellion, many white people were killed by black slaves. A few weeks later Nat was arrested and hung on after a trial. Styron wrote the novel The Confession of Nat Turner based on Nat Turner’s confession about his slave life.
The other event is also an insurrection led by black slaves on the Amistad. This revolt led by Cinque who is the one of enslaved Africans killed all the white people except captains who were ordered to take them back to Africa. But those captains instead lead them to America where those slaves were arrested for killing people. Afterward the trial in order to get the slaves’ right of the freedom back, which is contested by Spain owned the Spanish ship and the United States as well as individuals who climbed them as property they belong to their own properties. On the other hand they were defended by an activists who pointed out they were illegally brought them from also Africa. Steven Spielberg, who directed “Schindler List” described historical incident made the film “Amistad” based on this incident.
