Did you know the enslaved people's of colonial North America regularly poisoned their oppressors? It was a real problem that our popular mythology overlooks, for some reason. side-eye-1 side-eye-2

It turns out that most of the black women who were executed in the era of slavery had killed their white masters. According to Baker, “slave women mostly strangled, clubbed, stabbed, burned, shot, poisoned, or hacked to death their White masters, mistresses, overseers, and even their owners’ children (p.66).” Poisoning and arson were the most prevalent methods slave women used to kill their oppressors.

Counter-revolution of 1776 is a good read on a ton of uprisings, touches on poisonings.
