The Devil’s Punchbowl: Natchez, Mississippi – The Concentration Camp of the U.S. Civil War



Natchez, Mississippi is home to a grove that grows some of the most beautiful peaches in the U.S.A., but folks who know their history won’t eat them. Why? They know they were fertilized with the bodies of free Black people killed both during and after the Civil War.
➡️ Natchez was the site of a brutal concentration camp known as the Devil’s Punchbowl that resulted in the deaths of over 10,000 free Black men, women, and children. Their only crime? Having melanin.

One of the more shocking aspects of this untold tragedy is that the perpetrators weren’t who you think. It was the Union Army that oversaw this grave violation of human rights and dignity. These poor souls died of starvation, hanging, and diseases like smallpox.
➡️ They even refused to allow the surviving free men and women to remove the bodies of those whose lives were sadly snuffed out for daring to exist.
Never forget the sacrifices and horrors our ancestors endured so that you may live a free life. Don’t let their deaths be in vain. Know your history.
