Channel: Natchez National Historical Park
Date: 2016-10-18

Aniyah Catson, a sixth-grader at Morgantown Leadership Academy, presents today's Natchez History Minute about a slave conspiracy that took place in the Second Creek community in 1861.  The resulting inquiry by white planters resulted in the massacre of at least 27 and perhaps as many as 40 slaves.  Slave testimony recorded by one planter formed the basis of a book about the incident.
