The Nat Turner Rebellion

In August 1831, Nat Turner, an enslaved preacher from Southampton County, Virginia, led one of the most infamous rebellions in American history. Guided by what he claimed were divine visions, Turner and his followers unleashed a violent uprising that sent shockwaves through the South, challenging the very foundation of slavery. But while the revolt lasted only two days, its consequences would echo for decades, fueling deep-seated fears and tightening the grip of oppression. Join us as we explore the chilling history of Nat Turner's Rebellion and its lasting legacy. Want to Listen to Southern Gothic Ad-Free?
