The Caning of Charles Sumner, or the Brooks–Sumner Affair, occurred on May 22, 1856, in the United States Senate chamber, when Representative Preston Brooks, a pro-slavery Democrat from South Carolina, used a walking cane to attack Senator Charles Sumner, an abolitionist Republican from Massachusetts. The attack was in retaliation for a speech given by Sumner two days earlier in which he fiercely criticized slaveholders, including South Carolina Senator Andrew Butler, a relative of Brooks. The beating nearly killed Sumner and contributed significantly to the country's polarization over the issue of slavery. It has been considered symbolic of the "breakdown of reasoned discourse" and the use of violence that eventually led to the Civil War.

rdfs:comment	حادثة ضرب تشارلز سومنر، أو قضية بروكس وسومنر، هي حادثة وقعت داخل مجلس الشيوخ الأمريكي في 22 مايو 1856، عندما استخدم النائب برستون بروكس، وهو ديمقراطي مؤيد للرق من كارولينا الجنوبية، عصا المشي خاصته لضرب السناتور تشارلز سومنر، وهو جمهوري معادي للعبودية من ماساتشوستس، ردا على خطاب ألقاه سومنر قبل يومين انتقد فيه بشدة ملاك الرقيق، بمن فيهم أحد أقرباء من بروكس. كاد الضرب أن يودي بحياة سومنر ولقي ردودا شديدة من الجانبين داخل الرأي العام الأمريكي حول موضوع توسع العبودية في الولايات المتحدة. وقد اعتبرت الحادثة رمزا لـ «انهيار الخطاب المنطقي» والذي أدى في النهاية إلى قيام الحرب الأهلية الأمريكية. (ar) Die Brooks-Sumner-Affäre (englisch Brooks–Sumner Affair; auch Caning of Charles Sumner) war ein Ereignis im Jahre 1856 in den Vereinigten Staaten, das symbolisch für den Zusammenbruch eines zivilisierten Diskurses in der Sklavereifrage steht. Am 22. Mai 1856 schlug der demokratische Kongressabgeordnete Preston Brooks aus South Carolina im Senat der Vereinigten Staaten mit einem Gehstock auf den republikanischen Senator Charles Sumner aus Massachusetts ein und verletzte diesen schwer. Sumner, ein Abolitionist, hatte zwei Tage zuvor eine Rede gehalten, in der er die Sklavenhalter des Südens scharf angegriffen und dabei einen Verwandten Brooks’ erwähnt hatte.
