Bleeding Kansas • In 1855, there were more proslavery than antislavery settlers in the Kansas Territory. • People from Missouri came and voted illegally filling the legislature with proslavery representatives • Antislavery settlers rejected the elected government and decided to take arms against their brethren. • John Brown led his men and killed his proslavery neighbors causing a civil war in Kansas. • This civil war was called “Bleeding Kansas”

  5. Violence in Congress • Senator Sumner gave a speech against proslavery in Kansas • Preston Brooks heard his speech and attacked Sumner. • Brooks was cheered in the South. The North was shocked.
