It’s the anniversary of when a small band of people tried to start a revolution to end the horror of slavery in a raid on Harpers Ferry. This is mostly known as John Brown’s raid. But I want to talk about Osborne Perry Anderson, the raiding party’s sole Black survivor. https://t.co/BRjEBk5svr — PolitiTweet.org

I lost a dear friend a few months ago, in what was truly the worst part of a disaster weekend and sometimes all I want to do is call and tell him I made it through somehow. — PolitiTweet.org

Anderson escaped the raid and even worked with pioneering Black female publisher and lawyer Mary Ann Shadd Cary to release a first-hand account of the event, which you can read here: https://t.co/kIRqg2iYOO — PolitiTweet.org
