The correct answer is B. Considered him a hero of the antislavery cause

Explanation:

John Brown was an American abolitionist, which means Brown supported the idea of ending slavery, that lived during the 19th century and believed armed insurrection was the only way to end with slavery, because of this he did not agree with the pacifism as part of the abolitionist movement. Because of this John Brown led multiple raids in order as an attempt to free slaves and intended to provide weapons to the slaves. On 1852 Brown was condemned for treason against Virginia, promoting slave insurrection and the death of five men action that resulted from John Brown raids and attempts to free the slaves and because of this he was hanged. These events made most Northerners who supported the abolition of slavery consider Brown as a hero of this cause as they believed Brown was a martyr who sacrificed himself; on the contrary, on the South, as they did not support the abolition of slaves many people were afraid others would follow the same methods of Brown. Thus, it can be concluded after John Bown was tried, convicted, and hanged, B. "many Northerners considered him a hero of the antislavery cause".
