Stono Rebellion (1739)

The direct cause of the uprising remains question. The malaria epidemic in Charles Town has brought about the general barriers of Carolina who may have influenced the time of rebellion. Recently, the "Safety Law" adopted by the South Carolina Colonial Council (August 1739) may also play a role. This bill calls for all white men to bring guns to the church on Sunday. Therefore, rebel factions know that when an armed white male is away from the plantation during the service of the church, they are most likely to succeed.

After the Storio rebellion, the South Carolina authorities began to reduce the induction of the rebellion. For example, the master is punished for overwork of slaves and brutal punishment, and begins to go to school so that slaves can learn Christian doctrines. In colonies already more black than white people, the General Assembly also prohibited the import of new slaves from Africa and the West Indies. The authorities also strengthened control over slavery. Congress enacted a new law requiring that blacks and whites in farms be at a rate of 1 in 10 people and forbidding enslaved people to raise their own food and collect them collectively There. Money rather than its owner

Storino's rebellion in 1739. The pestilence weakens the power of the slave owner and the slave treats it as a counterattack. The revolt was led by Angolan slave Jemmy. Jemmy and 20 African-American slaves met near the Storno River, moved along the way above the Storno River Bridge and grabbed weapons and ammunition. In the process they burned 7 farms and killed 20 Caucasians. They also recruited more slaves along the way, and their number reached 80. But under the direction of Vice Governor William Boule, they eventually were constrained by a group of planters and slave owners. The captured slaves were beheaded and their heads jumped along the way

The Stono Rebellion in 1739, the Gabriel Prosser plot in 1800, the Vesey plot in Denmark in 1822, and the Nat Turner rebellion in 1831 were the most prominent slave riots in American history. However, only Stono Rebellion and Nat Turner's rebellion succeeded and Southerners succeeded in destroying the rebellion of other plans before the attack occurred. After a slave uprising with Santo Domingo (now Haiti), many American slaveowners became uneasy and brought independence to colonies after many years of clash between France, Spain and the U.K. military investigation . . The slaves of the American colony (later America) knew that it was very difficult to make a rebellion. Caucasus surpassed slaves by much. Even in states like South Carolina, by 1810, Caucasians accounted for only 47% of the population and slaves could not put up with guns to endure white people.

Stono rebellion was the greatest rebellion of American colonial slave slaves. The location of Stono Rebellion is near the Stono river in South Carolina. The details of the case of 1739 are unknown, as the document of the case comes from direct reporting and several direct reports. White Carolinas wrote these records, historians had to rebuild the motives of slavery to participate in the causes and biased explanation of the Stoneor River Uprise.
