About The Black People

Mulatto Bi Racial Folk

 MULATTO / BI-RACIAL folk can be induced into African ideological systems and fight against white supremacy. Many MULATTO / BI-RACIAL folk have been abolitionist, have fought injustice, being "100% BLACK" is not a prerequisite to being on the right side of justice. Yes MULATTO / BIRACIAL people can fight for justice, despite not being 100% "AFRIKAN". 

A MULATTO hero, a man worthy of praise and honor, whom was high-yella and green-eyed his name was Charles Deslondes.

During America’s Largest Slave Revolt, the little-known 1811 Louisiana slave rebellion, the narratives of docile and simple slaves who seldom engaged in subversive activity to gain freedom was forever vanquished. 

Th 1811 slave revolt was part of a larger intellectual and political movement of the era inspired by the 1804 Haitian revolution. This event also wreaks havoc on that well-worn archetype of the tragic mulatto.

The Louisiana rebellion, In the middle of the night on Jan. 8, 1811, a small group of slaves entered the bedroom of plantation owner Manuel Andry in his German Coast, La., home.

After slaves slung a few axes and other domestic weapons, a wounded Andry managed to escape, but his son did not. The slaves then quickly seized arms and marched to New Orleans, picking up fighters along the way as whites fled in fear.

The revolt, however, was quickly put down by a local militia. The official storyline that then-Louisiana Gov. William C.C. Claiborne pushed and that most historians have accepted was that the slaves were a simple band of “brigands” out to pillage and plunder. 

However historical evidence that remains reveals a different account. The events of that fateful night had much larger, international, political and intellectual currents, revealing the sophistication of the slave rebels. 

This particular revolt was led by slaves imported from Haiti whom had knowledge of the 1804 Haitian revolution victory, this inspired slaves in every corner of every colony to rebel.

The timing of the revolt — when there was little work and the white elites were preparing for Carnival celebrations, paired with the absence of a significant military force because of American expansionism in Spanish West Florida — speaks to the slaves’ political and organizational acumen.

Maroon colonies in the bayou operated as effective bases from which rebels attacked in the years leading up to the German Coast uprising. Copies of the French Declaration of the Rights of Man were found in slave quarters. 

Battle-hardened warriors from Ghana and Angola took the led, these recent African imports marched in formation and in uniform with cavalry support, these were not the “give us free” types portrayed by Cinqué in the film Amistad. Their aim was to take control of New Orleans and establish a black state.

Among the men was a man, worthy of praise, a name I command you to honor, his name was CHARLES DESLONDES, he was not the tragic mulatto type, not a tormented figure torn between two worlds, he was heroic. 

Charles Deslondes was a warrior who used the access made available to him by the oppressor to liberate the oppressed. Deslondes was one of the main leaders of the rebellion, like Jesse Williams he was high-yella and green-eyed.

Instead of enjoying the privilege that his mixed heritage afforded him, working as a slave driver in Creole Louisiana, Deslondes raised arms to fight for freedom. May the name of the mighty warrior Charles Deslondes be forever honored and revered, may he forever rest in the womb of our ancestors.

NEVER FORGET AMERICA'S LARGEST SLAVE REVOLT WAS PLANNED AND EXECUTED BY A MULATTO : CHARLES DESLONDES

Over two-hundred years ago in 1811, the largest slave revolt in American history took place in New Orleans, Louisiana. During this revolt, about 500 enslaved Africans armed with pikes, hoes, axes, and a few firearms, marched on the city of New Orleans with one goal: to overthrow the city and establish a Black Republic. At the head of this revolt was a slave from Saint Dominique, Haiti, named Charles Deslondes.

It began January 8, 1811, on a plantation owned by Manuel Andry in St. Charles Parish. This plantation was located approximately thirty-five miles south of New Orleans. Charles Deslondes was a mixed race slave, who worked as a slave driver on the plantation. Because of his light features and status as a slave driver, he was afforded privileges other slaves were not. Slave drivers were given fine clothes and shoes, traveling passes, nicer cabins, and they ate the same food their masters ate. 

They were also charged with disciplining, driving, and hunting down other slaves. Because of this, Deslondes was feared by many of the other slaves and trusted by the white plantation owners. But as he began to hear news of the success of the Haitian Revolution, he started to realize the institution of slavery – and his role in the system – needed to come to an end. He began using his privilege to prepare for what would become the largest slave rebellion in U.S. history.

Although most of the slaves on the plantation hated and/or feared Deslondes as a slave driver, he began to influence them to join him in taking up arms against their masters. On the night of January 8, 1811, Deslondes and other slaves from the plantation seized the master’s mansion, killing his son and wounding the master with an axe blow to the head. Although badly wounded, the master was able to escaped and went on to warn other plantation owners of the coming rebellion.

The newly liberated slaves began their march along the river toward New Orleans. Marching with beating drums and flags displayed, they were divided into companies, each lead by an officer. They moved from plantation to plantation, killing the owners; gathering strength in numbers, taking horses, muskets, and knives to prepare for the battle ahead. During their two-day march, the slaves burned five plantation houses, several sugarhouses, and crops. Along their route to New Orleans, Charles recruited more slaves for his army. These recruits included slaves from neighboring plantations, runaway slaves who had been living in the woods, and a large number of “maroon” slaves. The army swelled to over 500 soldiers as they marched toward New Orleans chanting “Freedom or Death.”

Upon hearing of the incoming Black army, the Governor of the Louisana Territory, William C. C. Claiborne, locked down the city and began forming his opposing force. He gathered two companies of volunteer militia and thirty military troops under Commodore John Shaw. He then called for help from General Wade Hampton I, a local plantation owner and militia leader. Finally, he called in a second brigade from Baton Rouge, under the command of Major Homer Virgil Milton.

On January 11, 1811, the slave army and the militia met in battle. The slaves fought valiantly and with discipline, holding their own for nearly two days before being outgunned. At the end the of the battle, 66 slaves and 2 white men lay dead.

The leaders of the uprising were arrested and stood trail before a military tribunal. The tribunal sentenced sixteen of the rebellion leaders to death. They were decapitated and their heads were displayed along the river as a deterrent to any slaves who dared revolt. Many of the other slaves who assisted in revolt, were eventually captured and killed as well. Their body parts hung-up outside the gates of the city. After the revolt, New Orleans plantation owners became significantly more brutal, killing any slave they suspected of disloyalty with brutality and swiftness.

Charles Deslondes met his end on January 15, 1811. Before he was executed, he was tortured for nearly a day. His hands chopped off while he was still alive, then cauterized to keep him from bleeding to death so his torture could continue. He was shot in both legs, and then burned alive. His battered and charred body was then dismembered and displayed within the city as a lesson to all those who may have had any inclination of following in his footsteps.

Charles Deslondes’ personal sacrifice should never be forgotten. By slave standards, Charles had a good life. He was a slave driver. A “house negro.” Compared to most other slaves, he lead a life of comfort and privilege. Still, he gave it all up in the name of freedom for his people. -Maurice Milles Mansa
 
 Abraham Lincoln is know for fighting against slavery! That to is a lie family, dont give that man credit for that shit. Here is a letter I found that he wrote to Hon. Horace Greely on August 22nd 1862. Whatever he did for a black man had nothing to do with helping a black man it was for the union.... White Lies
