The Stono Rebellion was a rebellion that happened near the Stono River in South Carolina and it was the largest slave revolt in colonial America. Many slaves raided a firearms shop and killed more than 20 white people as they went south. The group of slaves had about 60 members.
After the Rebellion, white colonists passed the Negro Act of 1740 that made illegal for enslaves Africans to move abroad, assemble in groups, raise food, earn money and learn to write.
