John Brown: Martyr...or Murderer?
Manage episode 466271473 series 3472993
John Brown was a man on a mission from God. Or so he thought.
Less than a decade before the Civil War began, John Brown would attempt to lead a slave rebellion by taking over a military armory in Harpers Ferry, Virginia. Although unsuccessful, he would solidify his actions as a villain of the proslavery south and a hero of the antislavery north.
Brown considered himself as a hero of the Christian faith, trying to purge the sin of slavery from the country that he loved. Even today, his role in American history is polarizing.
Join John and his wife Annie (back again to bless the mic) as they discuss the enigma of John Brown.
Oh also, John doesn't know what the 19th century is. Don't be too hard on him.
