Answer:

he was a hero

Step-by-step explanation:

"He was charged with treason, murder, and conspiring with slaves to rebel. He was convicted on November 2 and sentenced to death. ... For abolitionists and antislavery activists, black and white, Brown emerged as a hero, a martyr, and ultimately, a harbinger of the end of slavery."
