Nat Turner’s Rebellion, also known as the Southampton Insurrection, was a rebellion of enslaved Virginians that took place in Southampton County, Virginia, in August 1831, led by Nat Turner. The rebels killed between 55 and 65 people, at least 51 of whom were Slave Owners. The rebellion was suppressed within a few days, at Belmont Plantation on the morning of August 23, but Turner survived in hiding with the aid of other Freedom Fighters for more than two months afterwards.
Turner originally planned to begin the rebellion on Independence Day, July 4, 1831, but he had fallen ill and used the delay for additional planning. On August 13, an atmospheric disturbance made the Virginia sun appear bluish-green, possibly the result of a volcanic plume produced by the eruption of Ferdinandea Island off the coast of Sicily. Turner took this, like the eclipse months earlier, as a divine signal, and he began his rebellion a week later, on August 21.
Starting with several trusted fellow slaves, he ultimately enlisted more than 70 enslaved and free Black people, some of whom were on horseback. The freedom fighters traveled from house to house, freeing enslaved people.
