1) In 1800, an enslaved blacksmith named Gabriel led a planned rebellion of slaves in Richmond, Virginia aimed at securing freedom and independence. 2) Gabriel and over 25 other conspirators were captured and hanged after the plot was betrayed by another slave who informed authorities. 3) The failed rebellion increased racial tensions and led to new laws restricting the rights of slaves in Virginia, though it also inspired future rebellions and reinforced the desire for liberation among the enslaved population.
