Synopsis

"The Kansas Question" is a powerful speech delivered by Senator Charles Sumner, a leading voice in the anti-slavery movement, addressing the tumultuous events surrounding the issue of slavery in Kansas. Delivered during a pivotal period in American history, Sumner's oration meticulously reviews the actions of the Federal Administration concerning slavery's expansion into the Kansas territory.

Sumner's eloquent and incisive analysis provides invaluable insight into the political machinations and moral debates that ultimately led to the Civil War. This speech remains a significant historical document, offering a window into the passionate arguments and deep divisions that characterized the pre-war United States. Readers interested in American history, political science, and the struggle for civil rights will find Sumner's words both enlightening and profoundly moving.
