Enslaved people resisted constantly, sometimes escalating into open rebellion. Enslavers worked to keep stories of insurrection quiet, and those silences have shaped how slave revolts have been remembered, or forgotten, ever since. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn\u003ci\u003e Remembering Rebellion\u003c\/i\u003e, Evan Faulkenbury explores why interpreting the sites of slave revolts remains a highly contentious practice. Traveling from New England to the Deep South, he examines how museums and historic sites present the stories of uprisings ranging from the Stono Rebellion to John Brown's raid at Harpers Ferry. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFocusing on the work of public historians who engage visitors and shape these narratives, Faulkenbury shows how place-based storytelling and emotional sensory experiences can make enslaved resistance understandable to contemporary audiences. In this timely book, he argues that these rebellions were acts of freedom seeking and self-determination that deserve recognition in the larger story of our nation's founding struggles.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Evan Faulkenbury\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1643365355\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781643365350\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of South Carolina Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/19\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 208\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover","brand":"Evan Faulkenbury","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48997526536447,"sku":"9781643365350","price":114.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/remembering-rebellion-evan-faulkenbury-9781643365350","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
