Description

This book reveals how writers, as explorers of collective memory and historical record, imagine cautionary Nat Turner-tales that reflect their time and beliefs. The book critically surveys how Turner inspired the cultural imagination and became a largely misunderstood and polarizing figure in the US imaginary. By locating the Turner Insurrection within the territory of historical race trauma, writers across the color-line have exposed the lasting impact of slavery on American society. As African Americans continue to endure the indignities and inequity of an insidiously racist system, servile insurrections emerge as models of heroic rebellion. Historical literature is mnemonic in nature and cautionary in purpose. Since rebellion is predetermined within unjust systems, as recently as May 2020, the police killing of yet another unarmed Black man caused nation-wide protests. The US is undergoing a paradigm shift that dispels the political fiction of racial equality and the optimistic rhetoric of a colorblind and racially reconciled America, as it exposes the devastating effects of race trauma.
