During the #BleedingKansas period, where pro-#slavery and #abolitionist factions fought over the territory's future, on #ThisDayInHistory in 1855 the #BorderRuffians gang crossed in from #Missouri to commit crimes ranging from murder to #VoterFraud to make Kansas a slave state.

The Territory After Stephen Douglas made a serious miscalculation, Bleeding Kansas erupted as settlers fought over slavery, with election fraud, armed raids, and John Brown’s Pottawatomie Massacre setting the stage for the coming Civil War. #BleedingKansas #JohnBrown #KansasNebraskaAct #PottawatomieMassacre #AmericanHistory

🤔 GOP has learned the lesson well, right from the top! Does GOP Republican MAGA Trump EVER answer a question without first saying "I don't know about that"? Roger Marshall is a chip off the old block of shit 💩 & has been useless for Kansas! #BleedingKansas #ImpeachTrump #RepublicansAreTheProblem 🤬

“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.“– John Brown, Kansas Territory, 1856.

On this day in 1856, abolitionist John Brown was executed. Here in “Bleeding Kansas” he remains a hero for fighting to end slavery and for avenging the 800+ pro-slavery men who attacked our town only months earlier.

A powerful digital painting of abolitionist John Brown, depicted in fiery tones of orange and gold. He stands at a podium, fists raised, face lit with conviction as flames and silhouetted figures burn behind him. The text below reads, “JOHN BROWN WASN’T ‘CRAZY.’”

John Brown wasn’t “crazy”—he answered proslavery terrorism with the only language America understood: force. While slaveholders burned towns, he was called mad for killing five. #BleedingKansas #AbolitionistClarity

When you grow up with this mural in your state capitol, it's always a good day to celebrate John Brown! #WWJBD #BleedingKansas

We’re not on the brink. We’re already falling. The last time America ignored the warning signs, it ended in Civil War.
It’s not history—it’s the playbook.

What the heck does “Freelance Kansas” mean? To be clear: Freelance Kansas is a boutique marketing firm, and the name plays on Free Kansas and the Bleeding Kansas period of history.

So, what does the name “Freelance Kansas” mean? A.) maybe it’s obvious — I’m a #freelancer and I live and (mostly) work in #Kansas. But B.), there IS an underlying purpose, and it has to do with my new home state’s history — #FreeKansas, #BleedingKansas… I’d love to tell you more:
