Jayhawkers and red legs are terms that came to prominence just before the American Civil War in Kansas during the Bleeding Kansas era, where they were adopted by militant bands affiliated with the free-state cause during the American Civil War, a freedom fighting movement against slavery and in favor of individual liberty. These gangs were guerrillas who often clashed with pro-slavery groups from Missouri known at the time in Kansas Territory as "Border Ruffians". After the Civil War, the word "Jayhawker" became synonymous with the people of Kansas, or anybody born in Kansas. Today a modified version of the term, Jayhawk, is used as a nickname for a native-born Kansan, but more typically for a student, fan, or alumnus of the University of Kansas.* |
