What was John Brown's view of slavery in the US?

John Brown was a radical abolitionist. During the days of " Bleeding Kansas" Brown and his sons murdered execution style pro-slavery people in front of their own families. Somehow he escaped prosecution and he next appeared on a Maryland farmhouse he bought under an assumed name. His financial backers were wealthy New England abolitionists. John Brown tried to interest Black scholar Frederick Douglas in Brown's plan to start a slave rebellion. Douglas once a slave himself wanted no part of it. Next Brown was able to convince Harriet Tubman of the Underground railroad to help him. She did and supplied him with maps of Virginia and Maryland. Brown's idea was to take over a Federal arsenal at Harper's Ferry and use the weapons to arm the slaves he hoped to incite into a revolution. His plan failed and no slaves were recruited. Brown was captured at Harper's Ferry by Marine Colonel Robert E. Lee. Brown was hanged for treason in 1859. For radicals like himself he became a martyr.
