“Without libraries what have we? We have no past and no future.” ― Ray Bradbury

The acronym of the day is: MRAP

We are taking it upon ourselves to teach this to you because our taxes buy combat vehicles in OUR COMMUNITY but they don’t pay for library repairs, why is that?

On this day, 30 October 1831, the previously-enslaved rebel leader Nat Turner was captured in Virginia. Two months prior, Turner and six other men enslaved by the Travis-Moore family in Southampton County began a rebellion, killing the family while they slept. They proceeded to go from house-to-house, killing enslavers, taking horses and recruiting more rebel fighters.
Eventually white authorities sent in armed militia as well as state and federal troops and succeeded in suppressing the uprising, but Turner escaped and went into hiding. After his arrest, Turner was tried, convicted, hanged and skinned. 54 other Black people were also executed, and up to 200 others murdered by white mobs in revenge attacks.
However, other white people in the state began to advocate abolishing slavery, or repatriating all enslaved and free Black people to Liberia. In 1832 public pressure forced an abolitionist bill to be considered by the Virginia state legislature but it failed to get enough votes to pass, and instead harsh repressive laws were passed against free and enslaved Black people to limit their rights to associate and learn to read to try to prevent future rebellions.
