Description

In the decades prior to the outbreak of the US Civil War, abolitionists had been ratcheting up their efforts to end the institution of slavery. 




The battle was fought mainly through politics and persuasion, but some were not satisfied with a peaceful approach and felt that more active means were necessary.




One abolitionist stands above others in his willingness to use violence to end the institution of slavery: John Brown. 




Learn about John Brown and his radical abolitionism on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
