On 13 May 1833, enslaved people on farms owned by the Junqueira family began a revolt at Fazenda Campo Alegre in Carrancas. Led by enslaved people including Ventura and others whose names survive unevenly, the movement spread across several estates. The uprising arose amid rumors of freedom and a fierce struggle over who could define emancipation. Authorities later used the revolt to justify harsher penalties for enslaved resistance. Its history is often marginalized in national narratives despite its scale and political impact.
