Explanation, Nat Turner was an educated slave who led a revolt with both slaves and freed black men. They killed many citizens of the town, but a local militia ended their rebellion. Because of this, fear and stigma of educated slaves grew. Many slaves were no longer allowed to learn to read or write, and other strict codes were set in place to prevent future uprisings.
