Salomon Northup was an African American abolitionist who lived throughout the first half of the 19th century. He was a born as a free man. He is known for being the author of the book "Twelve Years as a Slave", which tells the history of his life during the years he was kidnapped and turned into a slave.

It was started by the God Worshipping Society , an organization resembling a cult, a sect, whose leader was self-proclaimed prophet Hong Xiuquan. They held the old historical capital of Nanjing for a decade. The rebellion was ultimately crushed. More than 20 million people died.
