1798 Revolt of the Alfaiates
Slave revolt in Bahia, Brazil
The Bahian Conspiracy, also known as Revolt of the Tailors–after the trade of many of the leaders–and recently also called Revolt of Buzios, was a late eighteenth century slave rebellion in the then Captaincy of Bahia, in the State of Brazil. Unlike the Inconfidência Mineira of 1789, it was a separatist movement with a popular base and extensive black participation.
