♥️🖤💚This black history month I am honoring the Black Warriors that fought for Black liberation💚🖤♥️
Today we have the legandary Forest Joe who kept the planters of South Carolina on their toes from 1821 to 1823.
––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––
A majority of the facts here come from the book "Slavery's Exiles: The Story of the American Maroons" by Sylviane A. Diouf
Again I also like Michael Harriet's telling of the story in Black AF History!
Picture is not Forest Joe but another picture from a Google seach of Kerry James Marshall's work he's an amazing artist but I can't find an internet presence to link to his work directly but there are plenty of appreciation pages!
