In the end, the ultimate victors of this uprising were the white slave owners, while the black slaves were the losers, as they were depicted as criminals in this rebellion and perceived as these rebels looking to stir up violence and chaos in the country. With minimal accounts of African Americans who were enslaved throughout this rebellion, it has been very difficult attempting to understand the brutal experiences and struggles that these slaves went through. While this rebellion is not well known at all, it was incredibly important in the fight for racial equality and in the path to abolish slavery. Although the black slaves were the losers of this uprising, African Americans gained symbolic rights following its conclusion, and were able to move on the right path towards independence.
The events that took place during this rebellion were largely distorted by writers and historians as many people were unable to get a clear sense of what took place. In Charles Gayabre's book History of Louisiana, Gayabre writes, "The misguided negroes, who had been deluded into this foolish attempt at gaining a position in society, which for the welfare of their own race, will ever be denied to it in the Southern states of North America" (Gayabre). This reflects how the white race perceived these African American slaves during this time period and gave a sense of the representation of black people in Southern states. Even after the rebellion, whites continued to live and write about their superiority to African Americans in North America.
This website hopefully helped shed light on the true experience of these black people and the several scholars who took the time to focus on the issues regarding racism in our country and throughout this rebellion helped viewers understand the importance of African American mobility in the United States.
