1. Explain what is happening in the picture. Are there religious connections in the picture? What are they?Document 1 -- The Richmond Enquirer, August 30, 1831:
We cannot say how long they were organizing themselves, but they turned out on last Monday morning early (the 22nd) upon their nefarious [sinful] expedition. They were mounted to the number of 40 or 50, and with knives and axes, knocking on the heads or cutting the throats of their victims. They had few firearms among them, scarcely one, if one, was fit for use. But as they went from house to house, they drank ardent spirits [alcohol] and it is supposed, that in consequence of their being intoxicated, or from mere fatigue, they paused in their murderous career about 12 o'clock on Monday.
2. How many slaves took part in the rebellion?
3. The census of 1830 shows that there were 7,756 slaves in Southampton County where the rebellion occurred. Why do you think such a small percentage of slaves participated in the rebellion?
4. Do you think that the author of this article was biased in favor or against the slaves? Why?
Document 2 -- Harriet Ann Jacobs, Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl, Written by Herself:
Not far from this time Nat Turner's insurrection [rebellion] broke out, and the news threw our town into great commotion..... By sunrise, people were pouring in from every quarter within twenty miles of the town. I knew the houses were to be searched, and I expected it would be done by country bullies and poor whites. I knew that nothing annoyed them so much as to see colored people living in comfort and respectability. Those who never witnessed such scenes can hardly believe what I know was inflicted at this time on innocent men, women and children, against whom there was not the slightest ground for suspicion. Colored people and slaves who lived in remote parts of the town suffered in an especial manner. In some cases the searchers scattered powder and shot among their clothes, and then sent other parties to find them, and bring them forward as proof that they were plotting insurrection. Everywhere men, women and children were whipped till the blood stood in puddles at their feet. Some received five hundred lashes.
5. Why do you think that the "country bullies and poor whites" were allowed to harass the Africans?

AND THEY ARE BIAS TO DO SOMETHING THAT THEY DON'T!
THEY WERE BOUT 7,000 SAVES PART OF THAT rebellion.
i think because they really didn't wanted to be a part of the rebellion.

1.yes there is a religious connection.
2. They were mounted to the number of 40 or 50, and with knives and axes.

P4 Adrian Cuadras
1. In the picture Nat Turner is talking about doing rebellion. To me i dont see no religious conections.
2. About 40-50 slaves where in the rebellion.
3. Because i think the other slaves didnt have the courage to kill the white men, and there were to much slaves to tell everyone and they will be caught.
4. I think the author was not against the slaves because he/she thought that this was important for the slaves to fight back so he/she wrote about it.
5. Because the poor whites and country bullies could afford to buy the blacks so they had to get them by harrasing them.
P:4 Crystal C. and Juan C.
3.Because half of th population were weak and old.And because some of the people couldnt communicate because they didnt all live together.
5.Because they had colored skin and they were from a different place
P4 Samantha R. and Jeffrey M.
1.In the picture Nat Turner and his rebellious friends are planning out the rebellion.Yes there are religious connections.There are religious connections to The Prince of Egypt.
2.About 40 to 50 slaves.
3.I think such a small percentage participated because they didn't know about it since news took so long to travel.
4.I think the author was against slaves because it sounds like he was a victim of the rebellion and also because slaves couldn't read or write.
5.They were allowed to harass the Africans they would think they were going to plot an insurrection.
P.4
Ashley C.
Luis C.
1. A group of men are conversing, they all seem to be interested in what the man with the long stick is telling them. The leader holding the pole resembles Moises.
2. 40-50 slaves took part in this rebellion.
3. They were reluctant to participate in the rebellion because it's a very risky task to accomplish. If they get caught planning a rebellion there will be very severe consequences.
4. We believe he was biased in against the slaves because he refers to them as they and them instead of using their given names.
5. They were allowed to harass the Africans because they're(whites) are the owners of the slaves and are allowed to so as they please.
P4 Raymundo R & Osbaldo V
1-They are talking about the rebellion.Probably praying for nothing bad to happen during the rebellion or planning of what the are goiing to do.
2- About 40 or 50 slaves
3- The message did not get really far or people where scared to talk about it during the day so they did it during the night.
4- He/SHE was bias because he called the rebellion a Murderous career like if He/she was a victum.

1. They are planning the attack in the woods.
Nat has a stick like Moises.
2. Between 40 -50
3. They couldn't spread the message fast enough
4. I believe that she was against the slaves because she said they were sinful to God

1>in this picture Nat is planning the rebellion with his helpers. Thre is a religious thing wcich is the stick Nat is holding is like when Moses Was freeing the slaves he had a cane but in this case it is Nat saving the black slaves
2>There were around 40 to 50 slaves in the rebellion
3> They didnt because the message could not travel that fast and some people werent abel to spread the messega & others didnt hear it or knew waht was going on.
4>I think neither she was objective and not baised she was just explaining what happened
5> they were alowed to be harrased because if they looked suspicious to the rebellion they were to be whipped even women and innocent people were cosidered to be on the rebellion.

1. Slaves have gathered to talk. It is dark, night, which is the time their owners are asleep.
Yes, they're is religious connections .
In the bible, Moses rebelled and was violent together with others, Nat Turner is doing that in the picture.
2. 40-50 slaves took part in the rebellion.
3. We think so little percentage of slaves participated because the word was not going to get around quickly enough to all of then && the slave owners would soon find out. Some slaves might have been scared the rebellion would not be successful.
4. I do think the author was being biased against the slaves. He used the word [sinful] concluding that he is working against God, for an evil spirit.
5. "The country bullies and poor whites" were allowed to harass Africans because they were annoyed to see Africans living in comfort and respectabilty.
p.5 josephine.d &suejey g
1.it looks like the man is preaching and he also has a staff like moses in the bible.they r planing to rebel.
2.40 to 50 slaves
3.we think the rest of the slaves didnt want to murder other people and probably thought it was wrong.they could of being scared.
4.we think he was biased against the slaves because he only talked about the bad things they did and did say why.he also added words like "sinful" and "murders."
5.they were allowed because they didnt like the fact that blacks were living in comfort and because they r mean!

1. The Native Americans are in the woods gathered in a group. I think a religious connections is that the people may be talking about their belef. I can see their mouth moving so they must be saying something their not aloub. To talk about when their areoud their masters.
2. 40-50 slaves tock part in the rebellion.
3. I suppose that the other slaves didn't want to get in trouble with the law or their masters.
4. Against because it doesn't sound like if she/he like getting people killed. If the slaves where given their freedom then there wouldn't have been killing.
5. The wight people where mad and didn't want to see the blacks. Their comrades where killed and they wanted pay back. So they would toucher other blacks until they sow blood coning out of them. The weights, whipped them and they didn't want to stop. If Net was was killing innocent lives, then they thought they could do the same thing. They wanted justus so they where aloud to kill.
