    Nat Turner, a literate slave and preacher in the antebellum South, orchestrates an uprising.

    2016 period drama The Birth of a Nation uses its title “ironically, but very much by design”. I’m not so sure if the same applies to the typeface, as ITC Blackadder leans more toward Jokerman than constitutional hand.
