The Deslondes rebellion terrified white southerners more than any other slave revolt. It is a <u>false statement</u>.
<u>Explanation</u>:
The southern whites were mostly horrified by Nat Turner's Rebellion. Literacy of the white children was controlled by the Virginia legislature.
Nat Turner's Rebellion took place in Virginia, in August 1831. Nat Turner's Rebellion restricted the slaves from learning and also prohibited them from gathering for religious meetings. The literacy rate of the slaves was completely reduced.
The culture of fear was increased in Virginia and later it was spread to the rest of the South. The fear caused by Nat Turner's Rebellion was the major source of the Civil War.
Uncle Tom's Cabin was important to history because it was one of the major books to have a main black character. It helped set the political standard for anti-slavery which would become apparent in the election of 1860. The novel shared injustices of slavery and showed resistantce to decades of negative cultural beliefs surrounding black people.
