“I have only a short time to live, only one death to die, and I will die fighting for this cause. There will be no peace in this land until slavery is done for.“

In sociology, we learn that most people draw their views and morals from their parents and community. In my family, I believe that when you walk into someone’s house, you speak to everyone. John Brown’s family believed in anti-slavery views, and just as studied in sociology, he adopted his parent's morals. This led him to becoming one of the great anti-slavery abolitionists.
