Synopsis

The Confessions of Nat Turner provides insight into the mind of one of the greatest freedom fighters in human history. In the late night of August 21, 1831 Nat Turner and other revolutionaries began their divinely inspired rebellion. They went from plantation to plantation killing whites indiscriminately. Nat’s detailed review of his life and the uprising can be read in the pages of this text. “Being at play with other children, when three or four years old, I was telling them something, which my mother overhearing, said it had happened before I was born—I stuck to my story, however, and related somethings which went, in her opinion, to confirm it…” Nat Turner “Armed with a hatchet, and accompanied by Will, I entered my master's chamber, it being dark, I could not give a death blow, the hatchet glanced from his head, he sprang from the bed and called his wife, it was his last word…” Nat Turner
