Answer:

slave revolt in Virginia

Step-by-step explanation:

The Nat Turner Rebellion is a rebellion that took place in Southampton County, Virginia, in the summer of 1831. In August 1831, a group of slaves had organized and decided to rebel. They started to attack people and managed to kill between 55 and 65 people, with the majority of them being white. The rebellion was quickly suffocated, and the rebellions faced death after they were caught. The leader of the rebellion, Nat Turner managed to escape and to hide for two months. He was caught eventually though, and he was sentenced to death by hanging.
