Answer:

The correct answers are B and D. As a result of John Brown's raid at Harpers Ferry, in the South support for secession from the Union grew, and states passed laws to prevent rebellions by enslaved people.

Explanation:

John Brown was an avid abolitionist who believed that the only way to overthrow slavery was by armed insurrection. After bleeding Kansas and the Dred Scott case, in 1856 Brown attacked Pottawatomie, Kansas, where he killed five alleged slaveholders. He was then considered a criminal, but abolitionists considered him a hero. He decided to hide from the justice system and develop a plan of further action.

On October 16, 1859, with the support of about twenty people, he invaded the town of Harper’s Ferry. Brown's unit reached the town, killed the mayor and captured the armory located there. Slaves, however, did not support the uprising, while the state police and marines detached the warehouse easily and suppressed the rebellion. Some of the attackers were killed, while the rest were arrested and brought to court. Brown and his colleagues were accused of treason, conspiracy and murder, and the court sentenced them to death. The execution was carried out by hanging on December 2, 1859.

Feelings of fear over the threat of slavery and its violent suppression dominated in the south. The north of the country expressed support for Brown, which only deepened terror in the South. In addition, residents of the southern states were convinced that Republicans supported Brown's actions, which led to the decision to accelerate secession in the event of the Republican Party's victory in 1860.

What were some of the positive and negative aspects for the United States of joining post- World War II international organizati
Ghella [55]

Positive:

The years following the end of WW2 saw the United States consolidating as a superpower and the emergence of a global actor only equaled by the Soviet Union at the time. Efforts to prevent further conflicts in global scale resulted in the creation of the United Nations. The headquarters of many other multilateral organizations was lead by the US foreign policy that formerly didn't play such an active role

The "Marshal Plan" became a key for reconstruction of the European economies and it saw an emergence of financial institutions that fostered cooperation and development to many countries. This includes the World Bank, International Monetary Fund. This multilateral organisms were key to reconstruction of countries damaged by war.

Negative:

The policy of containment, and later the Cold war generated local conflicts, where famous cases like Vietnam generated a bad image to the World where Us should have not been involved

to prevent the spread of communism, saw the formation of the NATO, that nowadays is seen as an intromission from the US into European politics especially in the sphere of military and defense. Nato generates a huge military  budget and relies on American troops when Europeans could be more involved in solving their particular issues and being more autonomous
