I’d really like to know more about John Brown, but I just can’t get through biographical books, for anyone. Any good documentaries on the man, the myth, the legend?

Tbh, I’m surprised he was mentioned at all. American history up until recently really hasn’t been very polite to him. He’s pretty much treated as a traitor. The one big feature he’s got in popular media (The Good Lord Bird) treats him like a clown. I kinda suspect the author of it, James McBride, doesn’t even like Brown.
