The U.S. captured the Amistad in 1839 after a group of enslaved Africans aboard the ship revolted and took control. The ship ended up off the coast of Long Island, New York, where it was seized by the U.S. Navy. The incident raised significant legal and moral questions about slavery, leading to a high-profile court case that ultimately resulted in the return of the Africans to their homeland. The case became a pivotal moment in the abolitionist movement and highlighted the complexities of slavery in the United States.

basically the amistad was a ship in which carried black slaves to the U.S to sell them as if they were property. the slaves were treated harshly during this time. The story of the amistad rebellion is about the time where on of the slave men manages to escape from the lower decks and sets free everyone. The slaves all get on the to deck were they slowly one by one started to attack the captain, cook and the white men which were in charge. So its about the black people escaping from there prison and taking over the ship , amistad. hope this helps, i was writing an essay about this so i thought i might aswell answer your question. :)
