- Uprisings of enslaved people in the United States were not uncommon, and they had a big influence on how the institution of slavery evolved. One uprising that gets less attention, historically, is the German Coast Uprising that took place in Louisiana in 1811. A group of enslaved people rebelled, and the after-effects would be felt in Louisiana and throughout the nation for decades.

In high school, we pretty much spent a whole semester in AP American history on everything up to 1776. Then we went from 1776 to Manifest Destiny in about a week and spent the rest of the semester going from there to just short of the Great Depression. Then boom, that was the end of my US history lesson in my advanced placement class. It was for college credit too, and I didn't have to take any more history classes. Needless to say, I've never heard of this event.
That's a stereotype that all slaves were submissive and docile. Resistance took many forms.
2:34 Small note: it's worth mentioning that no Natives were asked, told, or consulted when it came to the Louisiana Purchase
Those dancing sessions are what led to capeoira in Brazil.
It's wild that I live less than an hour from the Destrehan Plantation (Referred above as the Andre Plantation it was renamed when another family took possession of it) and was literally never told this in school.
I think any slave revolt was sending a message to the rest of the country that slavery was wrong. So in that regard, yes, it’s a success.
Just as today, we will continue to resist the wrongs of racism.
Thanks for another great video on history of Africans in America!!!!!
Sucks that my school never talked about this. So much history gets ignored.
I’ve never heard this story. Wow.
This series is still so well taught. The choice of wording is superb and well thought out.
I love these lesser known events of black American History. Thank you, sir! I wonder how much of its lesser known status comes from being far from the epicenter (Louisiana vs. South Carolina or Virginia) or its close proximity to the War of 1812 taking over the national narrative (also lost in the shuffle is the Georgia militia's invasion of Spanish Florida). Great video again!
I had never heard about this rebellion.
Stono, this one, and Nat Turner are probably the three largest ones. The Nat turner one I find most interesting.
It’s really incredible how three slaves became smart and effective leaders for their people. We really needed heroes like them back then✊🏾
This series should be an obligatory part of school
This is the 1st time I heard this story.
The point you make about success being overrated is something I've never thought about before, and it really puts into the perspective different forms of protest today.
I always knew rebellions and protests mattered even when they fail, but now I better understand why they do.
Thanks for talking about this important part of my home state's history. I only recently found out about this event when I was looking up the oldest plantation in Louisiana.
Thank you sir! This is necessary history.
Informative and well done content as always CrashCourse. Thank you!
I been learning lot with this channel
American Uprising by Daniel Rasmussen is an excellent book about this revolt. The Andry plantation was a beautiful.
Heroes!!!🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Honestly wish some of these revolts won
They did a reenactment of this 2 years ago in Destrehan.
Thank you.
I was watching another video when this video popped up on my phone screen
I like this one. I learned about it.
good stuff
This is enlightening
Incredible.
I just wanna know why every single ad for this vid was for chicken? What’s goin on RUclips?
This is why Haiti won’t be allowed to succeed.
We were more focused on World History. I have never been to Louisiana.
