Bleeding Kansas
Bleeding Kansas was the series of violent political confrontations determining the outcome of Kansas, whether it will be a free state or a slave state. “Border ruffians,” came over from the south, wanting Kansas to become a slave state. But there were also people like John Brown who advocated slave rights and wanted it to be a free state. This caused a very large debate and cause the death of 5 innocent lives, taken by John Brown’s men.
