Tacky's Revolt: The Story of an Atlantic Slave War
with Professor Vincent Brown
Harvard Professor Vincent Brown examines the largest slave revolt in the eighteenth-century British Atlantic world, known as Tacky’s Revolt. Tracing the roots, routes, and reverberations of this event across disparate parts of the Atlantic world, Brown’s new book Tacky’s Revolt: The Story of an Atlantic Slave War, expands our understanding of the relationship between European, African, and American history, as it speaks to our understanding of wars of terror today.
