Sam Sharpe was executed in Montego Bay after the rebellion was suppressed. He had organized a strike intended to press for freedom and paid work, and became one of Jamaica's central symbols of resistance to slavery. His execution did not undo the political force of the uprising. The National Library of Jamaica records his later reburial beneath the pulpit at Burchell Baptist Church, connecting public memory to the community institution around which the revolt had been organized.
