Nat Turner’s 1831 slave rebellion was the deadliest in U.S. history, resulting in about 50 to 60 white deaths and leaving a profound impact on American society. Born into slavery, Turner’s charismatic leadership and deep faith spurred a violent uprising across Virginia plantations. The brutal suppression that followed tightened slave codes, yet his actions fueled abolitionist debates and considerations about the morality of slavery. Turner’s legacy remains a symbol of the struggle for justice and epitomizes the human spirit’s resilience against oppression.
