Plan to End Slavery in America
His plan was to…. Attack an arsenal in Harpers Ferry,
Virginia Arsenal = Weapons storage
Start a slave rebellion Give the stolen weapons to slaves Kill slave-owners and end slavery Sounds easy right?

Brown’s Fate
Brown is found guilty of treason and is sentenced to death in November 1859 He was still proud of his actions as he
walked to the gallows
He was hanged on December 2, 1859
“I, John Brown, am now quite certain that the crimes of this guilty land will never be
purged away but with blood.”

Questions to Consider
Can you kill people and be a hero? What are the limitations a person has
for fighting for what they believe in? Did John Brown exceed those limitations?
Are the intentions of somebody’s actions more important than the actions themselves?
