John Brown was a radical abolitionist who believed in the violent
overthrow of the slavery system. During the Bleeding Kansas conflicts,
Brown and his sons led attacks on pro-slavery residents. Justifying his
actions as the will of God, Brown soon became a hero in the eyes of
Northern extremists and was quick to capitalize on his growing
reputation. By early 1858, he had succeeded in enlisting a small “army”
of insurrectionists whose mission was to foment rebellion among the
slaves. In 1859, Brown and 21 of his followers attacked and occupied the
federal arsenal in Harpers Ferry. Their goal was to capture supplies
and use them to arm a slave rebellion. Brown was captured during the
raid and later hanged, but not before becoming an anti-slavery icon.
