Ellen Conner · Answer 2

The raid on the armory in Virginia by John Brown and Charles Sumner spoke out against slavery are the right answers.

Explanation:

John Brown was an Abolitionist who gave leadership to a small crowd on a raid against a central armory in Harpers Ferry, Virginia in an effort to commence a loaded slave uprising and overthrow the system of slavery.

At the same time, the Caning of Charles Sumner was an event in the history of the United States that observed a representative recognized as Preston Brooks, used a passing cane to hit an abolitionist Republican, Senator Charles Sumner. The main reason for this strike was that the senator spoke against slavery.
