The white press and Black America
Amazon description:
In 1861 a group of slaves in Adams County, Mississippi, conspired to gain their freedom by overwhelming their masters. The conspiracy was discovered and more than thirty slaves in and around Natchez were hanged and several were whipped to death. In 1971 Winthrop D. Jordan came across the previously unanalyzed transcript of the testimony of some of the conspiring slaves. This book is an exhaustive analysis of his findings.
My comments:
I got this book through interlibrary loan and had to return it before finishing the last 70 or so pages, but I got the general gist. Parts of the text are hard to follow because of the many references to various slaves, slave owners, relatives, associates, plantations and locales, who owned who, who conspired or didn't conspire, who knew what when.
