✊🏾 Remembering the Christmas Rebellion (1831) On this day in 1831, more than 60,000 enslaved Jamaicans rose up in one of the most significant acts of resistance in Caribbean history — the Christmas Rebellion, led by Sam Sharpe. What began as a planned strike during Christmas exposed the brutality of slavery, shocked the British Empire, and helped accelerate abolition just two years later. Though the uprising was violently suppressed, its impact changed history. 📚 Source: Jamaicans.com – The Story of the Christmas Rebellion https://jamaicans.com/the-story-of-the-christmas-rebellion-remembering-a-defining-act-of-resistance-that-changed-history/ #ChristmasRebellion #SamSharpe #JamaicanHistory #Abolition #OnThisDay
