Charles Sumner
Violence erupted in Kansas during the mid-1850s as pro-slavery and anti-slavery factions clashed in a struggle known as "Bleeding Kansas," reflecting the intense national conflict over slavery. This turmoil was mirrored in Congress when Senator Charles Sumner delivered a fiery speech condemning pro-slavery forces, which prompted Representative Preston Brooks to attack him on the Senate floor in 1856, severely beating him with a cane. These events underscored the deepening divisions in the United States and foreshadowed the impending Civil War.
William Lloyd Garrison (1805 â?? 1879) was a prominent abolitionist, social reformer and activist/journalist. He was also known as the founder, editor and publisher of â??The Liberatorâ??, the preeminent abolitionist journal of the time and a fiery and inspirational anti-slavery orator and activist..
The Great Awakening, a series of religious revivals in the 18th century, featured prominent leaders such as Jonathan Edwards, known for his fiery sermons like "Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God," and George Whitefield, an evangelical preacher who traveled extensively and emphasized personal piety. Other notable figures included Charles Chauncy and Gilbert Tennent, who contributed to the revivalist movement. These leaders played a crucial role in shaping the religious landscape of colonial America, emphasizing individual faith and emotional connections to religion.
George Wallace became a popular figure in politics primarily due to his staunch advocacy for states' rights and his opposition to desegregation during the Civil Rights Movement. His fiery rhetoric and appeal to populist sentiments resonated with many white voters in the South who felt threatened by social and racial changes. Wallace's ability to connect with the frustrations of his constituents, combined with his charismatic and controversial public persona, solidified his status as a prominent and polarizing political figure in the 1960s and beyond.
