WHO WAS NAT TURNER?
THE RACIAL ERA |
MADE TO MAKE A CHANGE? |
The 1800s was a time where the colored were considered nothing and were made into slaves as the non-colored controlled everything.
THE SIGN FROM GOD...Over the years, Turner ran away. After 30 days of hiding in the woods he returned believing he heard divine voices and seen signs such as a vision in 1825 of a bloody conflict between black and white spirits.

People believed Turner was the chosen one because as a child, Turner was thought to have some special talent because he could describe things that happened before he was born. Some would say "surely [he] would be a prophet".
THE NIGHT OF REBELThe sky was so dark as the moon eclipsed the sun, this was the so-called sign that Turner received from God telling him the Rebellion has begun.
