16 oct. 1859 - John Brown's Raid
Description:
John Brown's Raid was on Harper's Ferry in Virginia. His plan was to establish a large slave rebellion in the south. But it failed because none of the slaves followed as he had thought. This increased sectionalism because southerns were afraid that abolitionist and free slaves were a threat to their economy.Ajouté au bande de temps:
