Denmark Vesey was a formerly enslaved African American who became a prominent figure in the early 19th century, known for planning a major slave revolt in Charleston, South Carolina, in 1822. He had purchased his freedom and was an influential member of the local Black community. The revolt was foiled before it could be executed, leading to Vesey's arrest and subsequent execution. His legacy endures as a symbol of resistance against slavery and the struggle for freedom.
