The Creole Rebellion tells the suspenseful story of a successful mutiny on board the slave ship Creole. En route for a New Orleans slave-auction block in November 1841, nineteen captives mutinied, killing one man and injuring several others. After taking control of the vessel, mutineer Madison Washington forced the crewmen to sail to the Bahamas. Despite much local hysteria upon their arrival, all of the 135 slaves aboard the ship won their freedom there.
The revolt significantly fueled and amplified the slave debate within a divided nation that was already hurtling toward a Civil War. While this is a book about the United States confronting the ugly and tumultuous issue of slavery, it is also about the 135 enslaved men and women who were unwilling to take their oppression any longer and rose up to free themselves in a bloody fight. Part history, part adventure, and part legal drama, Bruce Chadwick chronicles the most successful slave revolt in the pages of American history.

My wife and I were talking about the history we were taught in the ’60s. I know you could trust the government after Richard Nixon, but really hadn’t considered the history we learned. They were probably coloring the truth, omitting things and just plain lying back then as well.

What gets me is that they teach that the Civil War was all about slavery when the emancipation proclamation wasn’t issued until the 3rd year of the war. Not including the issue of states rights (which slavery was the most important right to the wealthy planation owners but not the only one) is dooming the US to repeat this nonsense. Look what the Supreme Court just did. Our freedom and our rights are now dependent on which state we live in. State are about to start making women register when they are late and if they have a miscarriage they will have to prove that they didn’t do it intentionally. It’s already happening all over in fascists states in the south.

Sounds like an amazing story, and one that mirrors the American Revolution itself.

Bamacowboy, sounds like you don’t know much about American history, but you’re at the right place to learn a thing or two. I would like to suggest you broaden your list beyond the propaganda.

@Jiminy Cricket
You’re quite right, it’s clear to the rest of the world that the US doesn’t really have a problem with fascism. I’m sure plenty of you think you were on the wrong team in WWII.

Tenbenson, labeling someone a racist or fascist, because they disagree with someone, is rather juvenile, and is regularly employed to marginalize one’s opponent, which is btw, a form of divisiveness—the very thing you are denouncing. The truth is, the truth is almost always more complicated. No, I am not a fascist. I’m not a warhawk, but neither am I a non-interventionist Libertarian. I’m a Conservative, Classical Liberal with some Libertarian leanings. I grew up in a very diverse neighborhood and later attended a church where almost every ethnic group was represented. I am not a racist, a fascist or a socialist.
Fact check, if you want to claim Abraham Lincoln was a fascist, then Bamacowboy isn’t the only one here who needs to expand his reading list. Oh, I know it’s popular to call America evil, so why bother, right? We love novelty almost as much as we love our self.
The truth is, slavery was a universally accepted institution. The Western world (including America) is not unique because it accepted slavery, but because their conscience was shaped by two distinct things: a change from honor-based society to dignity-based society, and second, an understanding of natural rights. These two powerful forces became the catalysts which fostered the abolition of slavery.
America isn’t, nor ever has it been, a perfect country. Nevertheless, although Thomas Jefferson was a slave holder, he also was a critic of slavery and tried to push back the institution. Pro-slave Americans foresaw the changes that were in the air, including the ramifications of documents such as The Declaration of Independence and the formation of a federal democratic representative constitutional republic.
The Republican Party was formed for the purpose of eradicating the institution of slavery. Lincoln was elected to represent the party in doing so, but the Constitution made it complicated and he respected it. It’s not that he wanted to preserve slavery, his first loyalty lied with the preservation of America. Should this be inflated to imply that he couldn’t care less about slavery? Of course not. He wasn’t assassinated by an abolitionist. The pro-slavery citizens knew he represented a threat to their institution and that’s why the Confederates declared war.
