What happens before the Civil War is just as important as the war itself, so I've launched a new series of YouTube Videos that go back 165 years to 1859. This second video is different from all future videos, as there is no voice narration, just text to read.
This video focuses on the famous abolitionist, John Brown; his background, history as an abolitionist, his role in Bleeding Kansas, and the challenges he is currently facing.
