UNCLE TOM’S CABIN (1852) Pulls the heart-strings of readers Points out hypocrisy of Christians that do not condemn slavery Stirs up anti-slavery sentiment in the north

ANTI-SLAVERY Had been a growing sentiment in the north Any lands acquired through westward expansion should be open only to free men (Wilmot Proviso reflected this belief)

ANTI-SLAVERY Free men should not have to compete against slave labor for economic opportunities Free men, free soil, free labor

ANTI-SLAVERY Slavery could exist where it had traditionally existed This was the ideology of the Free Soil party and eventually the Republican Party This is NOT abolitionism Anti-slavery sentiment is anti the SPREAD of slavery

IMPACT OF THE K-N ACT Angry northerners, some Dems, some Whigs, some Free Soilers eventually organize into an anti-slavery political party: The Republican Party The Kansas territory will become a testing ground for popular sovereignty Anti-slave and pro-slave settlers will move into Kansas This is where John Brown takes the stage of American history

John Brown Strict Calvinist background – strict code of right and wrong; Wrathful God 7 Children by first wife, 13 more with second wife Strict father – made oldest son keep a written account of the punishment he was due for his sins Also a compassionate, caring father

John Brown Station master on the underground RR 1837 – In response to the murder of an abolitionist clergyman (Elijah Lovejoy), Brown devotes his life to the destruction of slavery Continuous financial difficulties; debt; bankruptcy Lawsuits followed him all his life

John Brown 1843 – Dysentery ravages his home; 4 children die moved to North Elba, NY to live on land a wealthy abolitionist set aside for freed slaves Go to John Brown’s Holy War video
