John Brown's raid at Harper's Ferry in 1859 was driven by his fervent abolitionist beliefs and the desire to incite a slave uprising. His plan was bolstered by the increasing tensions over slavery in the United States, particularly following events like the Kansas-Nebraska Act and the violent confrontations known as "Bleeding Kansas." Brown aimed to seize the federal armory in Harper's Ferry to arm enslaved people and rally them to fight for their freedom. The raid ultimately failed, but it intensified the national debate over slavery and contributed to the mounting divisions leading up to the Civil War.
