"Bad Blood: The Border War that Triggered the Civil War " is a co-production of KCPT Kansas City Public Television and Wide Awake Films. The 90-minute documentary is about the events leading up to the Civil War along the border of Kansas and Missouri during the years of 1854 through 1861. The story is told through the eyes of Missourians & Kansans with a balanced approach to both sides of the thorny issue of slavery. The documentary is shot entirely in high definition.

  • the greatest site ever ... google Daily Grind Sports

    Tigers v Jayhawkers: A War

  • @boxerdogify3

    I agree with you. All this hate is now over damn football.

  • I feel guilty to be apart of a state that was apart of this. Kansas was most defininately not innocent, but neither was misourri. I will Proudly defend my state, and the way things went werent the right way.

    LONG LIVE KU! :)

    The wars over, and both states should respect eachother, but sadly this is not the case, instead, we trash eachother and drag eachother down. The effects of the past are ever present, which is sad really.

  • What saddens me is how it is taught (or not taught at all) in schools outside of kansas and Missouri. It is an important and interesting time in American History, and YES it was the first chapters of the Civil War, There was no innocent party and no guilty party. They all fought for the right as God gave them the light to see it.

  • @12FlyMe fuck john brown im a proude missouri man i love my state and will defender at all cause and fuck the murdering jay hawkers

  • @TommyC503 Ha ha not for reenactors it's not

  • @LateKnight347 Brown was a sadistic bloodthirsty murderer who fought badly for a good cause. He does not deserve to be idolized as a hero he should be branded as a war criminal. He was not a hero

  • After reading this site - I think you are all lunatics - the war is over!

  • Brown meant well - no doubt. He was just a lunatic, even if he was on your side, he was a lunatic.

    He had no communication with slaves ---none. He thought God was just going to magically communicate to the slaves how to fire guns, and how to get ammo, and how to fight armies, how to spred the word, and that surely slaves would join en masse, ect ect.

    IF God was going to do all that, why the hell didn't God just magically give them the guns too?
