compare the 1816 revot in Barbados to the 1831 revolt in Jamaica. by someone.... Before 1816 (in 1640 to be exact) the sugar industry was big. Africans were brought to be slave in these industries. Yet, in 1816 slave by the name of Bussa rebelled, many slaves rebelled with him. 1/5 of the industries were destroyed during the rebellion. Also during this time 176 slaves including Bussa died. 214 slaves got excuteed. On the bright side in 1834 Thanks to Bussa, te slavery upon these Africans was demolished, then and now Bssa is a hero in Barbados. BY: Girly girl 1617. PS: I only know all this because I am doing a project about Barbados and to me Bussa is a hero.

What are the cause of the 1816 Barbados revolt?
The causes of the 1816 revolt in Barbados were: 1. The British Slave Trade was abolished in 1807 and the slaves mistook it for emancipation. There was a registry or registration bill or also called the registration of slaves {1812-1815} in which planters or owners had to register their slaves, this was passed so as to stop excessive punishment as well as the illegal sale of slaves. The planters were infuriated over the passing of this bill and saw it as an interference in their domestic affairs. The slaves misinterpreted this as being anger about a plan for their emancipation. 2. A free coloured man called Washington Franklin read newspaper reports of the anti-slavery debates. 3. Harsh treatment inflicted by white society created a desire for permanent freedom and revenge. 4. Some slaves who were literate, such as Nanny Grigg, had access to local and English newspapers from which they learned about what was happening in England, Haiti, and elsewhere. 5. An able leader emerged among the slaves Bussa,an African born slave. 6. Slaves in Barbados enjoyed some measure of freedom and this measure of freedom helped them to organize the revolt.
