@kylie.brewer: “M*rder is bad” but enslaving an entire race is fine? Only wh!te people are considered true victims worthy of justice, even today… #sociology #USHistory #antiracism #leftist #humanrights
I wrote a persuasive essay in high school explaining why Andrew Jackson should be replaced on the $20 bill with John Brown. My paper got an A, but my teacher talked to me after about my "extremist views."

John brown was so deep in his faith he fully believed slave owners were demons, not possessed like they were actual demons

John Brown is the ultimate white boy. His only mistake was getting cornered at Harper's Ferry.

John Brown didn’t “murder” anyone. He just solved problems, and they killed him for it.

Harriet Tubman was supposed to join him in Harpers Ferry but was very sick. Theres too many confederate statues and not enough memorials to John Brown.

Mind you it was so regressive at the time that anti-slavery meant you were against the expansion of slavery to new states not that you were actually against slavery,

I love teaching about John Brown. I also get parent complaints when I teach about General William T Sherman’s Glorious March to the Sea. I teach History in Georgia btw 😈

As someone who grew up in Kansas in the 80’s/90’s, this is me learning he is taught as a bad person elsewhere? Like, here we gloss over his death and we talk about his abolition work and courage. We have reenactments and he is painted in a huge mural in our statehouse.

I watched the Extra Credit History YouTube series about John Brown. I remember watching it when it came out 3 years ago and was shocked to learn he was friends with Frederick Douglas

I remember also being very confused about the traitor narrative when I was taught about John brown in school, in my mind he was a hero!

like for real whenever I talk about the Haitian Revolution, some white people only like to highlight the 1804 massacre but not the fact that a lot of children was murdered in the hands of white slave owners

there's a group where I live called "The John Brown Breakfast Club" and they feed the houseless while advocating for defending cops and staunchly anti-racist.

In high school, I dressed up like him for a presentation. I wore the costume ALL day. He’s one of my favorite historical figures.

My teacher used John Brown to show how pictures can be biased. The one our textbook had showed him crazed.
Man was a hero deserving statues in his honor.
