David Whitehouse speaks in this session recorded at Socialism 2023. John Brown's 1859 raid on the arsenal at Harper's Ferry helped precipitate the Civil War. Brown’s radicalism didn’t come out of nowhere. This talk will trace some of the connections between the multiracial militant wing of the northern abolition movement and the struggles of enslaved Black revolutionaries to emancipate themselves.
