Nat TurnerOs Holy War To Destroy Slavery 12+

📓 A humble man of God, Nat Turner gave his life for the dream of bringing liberation to more than two million slaves. Nat Turner's holy war polarized the nation and set the stage for the opening guns of the Civil War. ÒThere was nothing rational about the institution of race slavery in America. Hidden heroic figures that fought against this hellish system have been ignored or maligned in the historical record. Dr. TuckerÕs work penetrates this barrier of fabrication about Nat TurnerÕs rebellion in opposition to the hideous institution of slavery. TurnerÕs campaign was not inspired by madness, but by the power of the human spirit to oppose brutal injustice. Race slavery was an institution of mass insanity approved by barbarous law and uncivilized nightmarish tradition. Dr. TuckerÕs masterpiece has penetrated a wall of ignorance by showing that Nat Turner was the Spartacus of his time.ÓMario Marcel SalasAssociate Professor of Political Science (RET)Adjunct Lecturer, University of Texas at San Antonio
