Answer:

The answer is b.

Step-by-step explanation:

He was a man of action, not of discussions. He was an arden abolitionist. He led an attack on a federal arsenal at Harpers Ferry, Virginia, in 1859 and his subsequent death before a firing squad made him a martyr of the antislavery cause and heightened animosities that contributed to the Civil War.
