I agree with what Ms. Wadsworth said at the beginning of class, that history is complicated, and I think that the Nat Turner Rebellion is no exception. Article 1 highlighted the massive repercussions that the Nat Turner Rebellion had on slaves already in slavery. I think that's a relevant point.

He was literate; he could have figure out another way to resist in combination with violence.

He would rather die fighting for his freedom than die being oppres WC]]> 2017-11-10 19:55:43 UTC https://padlet.com/wadsworth_a1/bcxnlewds1yb/wish/205815490 Collin F https://padlet.com/wadsworth_a1/bcxnlewds1yb/wish/205815673 He was a hero because he revolted and took his last option that he was given to make a change for people he didn't speak for themselves ]]> 2017-11-10 19:56:23 UTC https://padlet.com/wadsworth_a1/bcxnlewds1yb/wish/205815673 Bryce thinks he's a villain https://padlet.com/wadsworth_a1/bcxnlewds1yb/wish/205815689 He had a hero mentality and mindset, but the repercussions and consequences made him a villain. Also, looking at statistics, he is a villain.]]> 2017-11-10 19:56:26 UTC https://padlet.com/wadsworth_a1/bcxnlewds1yb/wish/205815689 Hero https://padlet.com/wadsworth_a1/bcxnlewds1yb/wish/205815717 From “The Appeal”
"The whites have always been unjust, jealousy, unmerciful, avaricious, & blood thristy set of beings, always seeking after power & authority.” How can you not be inspired after hearing this? The massacre showed that slaves weren’t happy & slaves were being killed in secret everyday, the only difference is that after the massacre ppl wrote about them.
