What statement best explains why john brown's raid failed to reunite forces that opposed slavery?
Without a doubt, John Brown's attempt to begin a slave revolt in Virginia was ill conceived. He, for one reason, did not have enough men in his group to carry out any sort of military victory other then taking over the undermanned Federal Arsenal at Harper's Ferry. His force was no larger than perhaps 23 men. And, as they lacked enough weapons, raiding a Federal arsenal quickly received the attention of Federal forces. Aside from that, Brown chose a place near that arsenal that had few slaves. Even then, the few slaves there did not join his forces in a revolt.
