Few black or white Americans were prepared to join a rebellion led by a fanatical abolitionist.
The raid on the Harpers Ferry Federal arsenal was a failure because Brown had a serious misconception about the best way to abolish slavery in the US. His plan was ill conceived and he had no evidence at all that slaves were anywhere near a rebellion. Brown found himself at odds with the US Army and that was a huge error.
He was not able to spark the popular uprising that he had hoped. He and his followers, mostly sons and sons-in-law, were left to fight the federal forces by themselves when no one joined them.
Harper's Ferry
John Brown's plan was to make all slaves rebel against slavery.

you should have a comma after "plan" and "fail" should have an "s" at the end. Irony FAIL!

True. You can succeed without a plan, but with a prepared mind.

Because if you fail to plan, you plan to fail...
I believe the quote is actually "If you fail to prepare then you are preparing to fail" and it would be Benjamin Franklin.
