  • La Révolte de Tacky, ou Guerre de Tacky, est une révolte servile opposant les esclaves de Akan (alors appelée Coromantee) aux forces militaires de l'Empire britannique en Jamaïque. Elle se déroula de mai à juillet 1760. Il s'agit d'une des plus importantes rébellions d'esclaves dans les Caraïbes entre l'Insurrection des esclaves de Saint John de 1733 et la révolution haïtienne de 1793. Selon le professeur Trevor Burnard, cette révolte eut un impact considérable ; il la décrit en ces mots : « en termes de chocs subis par le système impérial, seule la guerre d'indépendance américaine dépassa la révolte de Tacky au XVIIIe siècle. » (fr)
  • Tacky's War, Tacky's Revolt, or Tacky's Rebellion, was a widespread slave rebellion in the British Colony of Jamaica in the 1760s. Led by Akan people (then referred to as Coromantee but originally from around Kromantsie in the Central Region of Ghana) -- tribes including Ashanti, Fanti, Nzema and Akyem, -- it was loosely led by a Fanti royal and warlord called Tacky (Takyi) in eastern Jamaica, and Dahomean war chief or coastal headman Apongo in the western end of the island. Tacky's War was the most significant slave uprising in the Caribbean between the 1733 slave insurrection on St. John and the 1791 Haitian Revolution. According to Professor Trevor Burnard: "In terms of its shock to the imperial system, only the American Revolution surpassed Tacky's War in the eighteenth century." It was the most dangerous slave rebellion in the British Empire until the Baptist War of Samuel Sharpe in 1831–32, which also occurred in Jamaica. (en)
  • A Revolta de Tacky, também conhecida como Guerra de Tacky ou Rebelião de Tacky (em inglês, Tacky's Revolt), foi uma revolta escrava ocorrida na colônia britânica da Jamaica, entre abril de 1760 e outubro de 1761. A revolta é considerada a maior insurreição escrava do Império Britânico no século XVIII. Aproveitando-se da crise gerada pela Guerra dos Sete Anos — em que a Grã-Bretanha enfrentou França e Espanha — primeiramente algumas centenas, mas eventualmente mais de mil escravos se levantaram na Freguesia de St. Mary, com o objetivo de se expandir para o resto da ilha. Ao longo dos próximos 18 meses, mais de 60 brancos, 60 negros libertos e 500 negros escravizados morreram em decorrência do conflito. Em termos econômicos, as perdas avaliadas pelos colonos somaram cerca de 250.000 libras esterlinas. Foi liderada por africanos do grupo étnico akan — no Caribe eram chamados de nação Coromantee — originários da Costa do Ouro (atualmente Gana), na África Ocidental, conhecidos por serem altamente militarizados. A revolta recebeu esse nome por conta de um de seus líderes, um escravizado chamado Tacky (ou Takyi), que havia sido um chefe militar nas terras Fante antes de ser trazido para as Américas. Existiam, entretanto, outras lideranças dentre os levantados, como por exemplo um homem chamado Apongo (também conhecido como Wager), previamente um oficial real na costa africana, escravizado por um capitão da marinha britânica.
