"Was born in Newport News, Virginia, William Styron was the only child of William Clark Styron, a marine engineer, and Pauline Margaret Abraham. The Styron family decends from "Stiorings" who came to Virginia as early as 1650 and includes Scottist, Scotch-Irish, Welsh, Swiss, and English forebears,"The confessions of Nat Turner" (Styron v). Its amazing that William Styron is from the same place that Nat Turner was enslave , and led a slave revolt. That shock, that State tremendously. T.R Gray wrote, "To The Public, the late insurrection in SouthHampton has greatly excited the pulic mind and led to a thousand idle, exaggerated and mischievous reports.Woe a fellow human being got tired of being treated like an animal, and decided to fight for his life and those that had been horribly torched to death. Was label a savage, what about those that kidnapped his fathers and grand fathers. What was they? I just happen to be a decended of those people who was label savages. So i find it very hard at times to find the approprioate words to use in this blog.Any way back to the story that they wrote concerning Mr. Nat Turner. My thoughts about this is that i think that he was sniched out,and couldn't help but to surrender. In my concludsion of this horrific story i feel very sad that human beings had to be treated like animals. they were in their own contry minding their own business, and were seized and kidnapped to this hell in America. Woe to those that did that!
