Aaminah was a female slave-turned-pirate who served under Alonzo Batilla during the early 18th century.
At some point abducted by slavers, Aaminah was ripped from her family and set to be sold alongside a group of other slaves. During this time, she would often write letters to her illiterate mother, expressing her intentions to rebel against her captors. Although Aaminah subsequently managed to spark a rebellion amongst the slaves of her ship, she was harshly disciplined by the slavers, only being spared because of her value as a worker.
In July 1716, Aaminah would be rescued from her predicament by Alonzo Batilla, who had done so under the suggestion of Samuel Bellamy. Wanting to take revenge on the slavers, she agreed to join Alonzo's crew if he helped her liberate other slaves.
Aaminah and Alonzo subsequently attacked more than two dozen slave ships, disrupting the trade to such an extent that slave markets in Jamaica and Port-au-Prince had to be closed for several weeks. Aaminah eventually achieved an almost mythical status among the slaves, who spoke of her as an "African goddess" that struck terror in the hearts of all slavers.
In May 1717, Aaminah decrypted an encoded letter from Olivier Levasseur, allowing Alonzo to recover his friend's treasure.
