Talk:Stono Rebellion

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

My friendly edit-- The Stono Rebellion was one of the first organized slave rebellions in the Americas, not the United States seeing as the United States did not exist at the time. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Michaellsworth (talk • contribs) 21:37, September 7, 2006

The Stono Rebellion (1739) and the Great Slave Conspiracy (1741) were Catholic plots to undermine Protestant England during the Global Catholic-Protestant conflict known in America as the "French & Indian Wars" (1689-1787). The Stono Rebellion & Great Slave Conspiracy occurred precisely as the "War of Jenkins' Ear" and "War of Austrian Succession" were flaring up — between Protestants and Catholics — in Europe. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.143.68.244 (talk • contribs) 02:05, July 20, 2007
