That painting is HUGE, in the main hall of the Kansas Statehouse, Of course the band, Kansas used it on an album cover, but seeing it at full size is powerful.

Sorry, but Michael Moore does not belong in the same list as John Brown, Susan B. Anthony, and Malcolm X.

The Civil War officially started in 1861, but it unofficially started with the first shots fired in late 1855, in Bleeding Kansas.

Bleeding Kansas is not a myth. Bleeding Kansas claimed 200 lives in THE pre-civil war. Partisan Rangers, Red Legs, Abolitionists, Jay Hawkers, Bushwhackers, and opportunists participated in the the border wars/guerrilla warfare... Robbing, killing, raping, pillaging, raiding... Bleeding Kansas happened because of private interests in Westward Expansion with the Railroad, and political leverage of the CS vs US.

It's not "Free Staters," It's Free SOILERS. Kansas was a territory not a state until Lincoln became president and entered Kansas into the Union in 1861.

Actually, John Brown did represent a group of of Free STATERS... They were called Abolitionists. They were supplied with weapons and funds to antagonize and cross the Missouri border to capture slaves and harass slave owners. Whigs, Abolitionists, Know Nothings and the beginnings of what would be known of the party of Lincoln (The Republican Party.)

@armanflint actually its both. There were free staters and there were free soilers. There is a difference. Free staters wanted Kansas to come into the Union without slavery, free soilers on the other had wanted no African Americans in the state period. Fellow Midwest States such as Iowa also had this policy. It was more of an economic policy for the free soilers and a political one for the free staters.

@carbonneaugirl Free Soilers were a political party that wanted to keep slavery out of the territories in general. Free Staters were not an organized party, but rather a loose association of people who wanted to keep slavery out of Kansas specifically.
"free soilers on the other had wanted no African Americans in the state period."
You have it backward, the Free STATERS wanted no African-Americans in Kansas.

John Brown pulled three men and two little boys out of their home/cabins in Pottawatomie Kansas and shot one man in the head while the other victims were hacked to death with swords. John Brown pulled these men out of their homes and killed them because John believed that these people were pro-slavery... Subsequently, they were nothing more than poor farmers who were drug from their homes and murdered.
