World History Encyclopedia<p>There were 250-311 slave revolts in Colonial America and the United States between c. 1663 and c. 1860 as defined by scholar Herbert Aptheker (l. 1915-2003), but, almost certainly, many more that were not reported, as news of an uprising was sometimes suppressed, or the event redefined, to prevent panic among slaveholding communities. <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/History" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>History</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/StonoRebellion" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>StonoRebellion</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/Gabriel" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Gabriel</span></a>'sRebellion <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/DenmarkVesey" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>DenmarkVesey</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/Slavery" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Slavery</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/USHistory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>USHistory</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/HistoryFact" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>HistoryFact</span></a> <a href="https://whe.to/ci/2-2677-en/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">whe.to/ci/2-2677-en/</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p>

Well-documented look at Vesey's use of the bible and, more broadly, the bible around revolts and invocations of the bible in debates about slavery more generally.</p><p>But bc of the nature of this topic's sources, doubles as an excellent critical commentary on many of the sources themselves and the limits of our knowledge of the event.</p><p><a href="https://techhub.social/tags/Bookstodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Bookstodon</span></a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/histodons" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>histodons</span></a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/USHistory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>USHistory</span></a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/DenmarkVesey" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>DenmarkVesey</span></a></p>
