| Zusammenfassung: | "In 1822, White authorities in Charleston, South Carolina, learned of plans among the city's enslaved and free Black population to lead an armed antislavery rebellion. Among the leaders was a free Black carpenter named Denmark Vesey. After a brief investigation and what some have considered a dubious trial, Vesey and thirty-five others were convicted of attempted insurrection and hanged. Although the rebellion never came to fruition, it nonetheless fueled Black antislavery movements in the United States and elsewhere. To this day, activists, politicians, writers, and scholars debate the significance of the conspiracy, how to commemorate it, and the integrity of the archival records it left behind. Fugitive Movements memorializes this attempted liberation movement with new interpretations of the event as well as comparisons to other Black resistance throughout the Atlantic World—including Africa, the Caribbean, and the Northern United States. This volume situates Denmark Vesey and antislavery rebellion within the current scholarship on abolition that places Black activists at the center of the story. It shows that Black antislavery rebellion in general, and the 1822 uprising by Black Charlestonians in particular, significantly influenced the history of slavery in the Western Hemisphere. The essays collected in this volume explore not only that history, but also the ongoing struggle over the memory of slavery and resistance in the Atlantic World"--Back cover |

Fugitive Movements memorializes this attempted liberation movement with new interpretations of the event as well as comparisons to other Black resistance throughout the Atlantic World—including Africa, the Caribbean, and the Northern United States. This volume situates Denmark Vesey and antislavery rebellion within the current scholarship on abolition that places Black activists at the center of the story. It shows that Black antislavery rebellion in general, and the 1822 uprising by Black Charlestonians in particular, significantly influenced the history of slavery in the Western Hemisphere. The essays collected in this volume explore not only that history, but also the ongoing struggle over the memory of slavery and resistance in the Atlantic World"--Back cover Vesey, Denmark 1767-1822 (DE-588)1139217038 gnd rswk-swf Geschichte 1822 gnd rswk-swf Sklavenaufstand (DE-588)4055256-1 gnd rswk-swf Charleston, SC (DE-588)4217693-1 gnd rswk-swf Vesey, Denmark / approximately 1767-1822 Slave insurrections / History Antislavery movements / History Charleston (S.C.) / History / Slave Insurrection, 1822 Révoltes d'esclaves / Histoire Mouvements antiesclavagistes / Histoire Charleston (Car. du S.) / Histoire / 1822 (Révolte d'esclaves) HISTORY / United States / State & Local / South (AL, AR, FL, GA, KY, LA, MS, NC, SC, TN, VA, WV) SOCIAL SCIENCE / Slavery Antislavery movements Slave insurrections South Carolina / Charleston 1822 History (DE-588)4143413-4 Aufsatzsammlung gnd-content Vesey, Denmark 1767-1822 (DE-588)1139217038 p Charleston, SC (DE-588)4217693-1 g Sklavenaufstand (DE-588)4055256-1 s Geschichte 1822 z DE-188 Spady, James O'Neil 1968- (DE-588)1212444868 edt Sinha, Manisha 1962- (DE-588)1102549479 edt Erscheint auch als Online-Ausgabe 978-1-64336-266-3 |
