In high school, we pretty much spent a whole semester in AP American history on everything up to 1776. Then we went from 1776 to Manifest Destiny in about a week and spent the rest of the semester going from there to just short of the Great Depression. Then boom, that was the end of my US history lesson in my advanced placement class. It was for college credit too, and I didn't have to take any more history classes. Needless to say, I've never heard of this event.

I love these lesser known events of black American History. Thank you, sir! I wonder how much of its lesser known status comes from being far from the epicenter (Louisiana vs. South Carolina or Virginia) or its close proximity to the War of 1812 taking over the national narrative (also lost in the shuffle is the Georgia militia's invasion of Spanish Florida. Great video again!

The point you make about success being overrated is something I've never thought about before, and it really puts into the perspective different forms of protest today.
I always knew rebellions and protests mattered even when they fail, but now I better understand why they do.

I think any slave revolt was sending a message to the rest of the country that slavery was wrong. So in that regard, yes, it-s a success.
Just as today, we will continue to resist the wrongs of racism.
Thanks for another great video on history of Africans in America!

It's wild that I live less than an hour from the Destrehan Plantation (Referred above as the Andre Plantation it was renamed when another family took possession of it) and was literally never told this in school.
