John Brown, an abolitionist ( someone who wishes to stop slavery ) tried to start an antislavery rebellion by attacking a US. army post located in Harper's Ferry, Virginia. The people in the Union ( North ) saw him as an incredibly bold hero while the Confederates ( South ) saw him as a violent Northerner.

Hope that answered your question!
