The Wimot Proviso was a bill that was first introduced by Congressman David Wilmot. This bill was designed to eliminate slavery in the land that was newly obtained by the US from Mexico. This bill was hated by the south, who wanted slavery in this new area of land, to further grow their plantations, and crops. The arguments about this bill helped to form the Republican Party in 1854. With the national conflict of slavery, many people wanted to stop the spread of slavery and potentially end it. Abolitionists like David Wilmot, wanted to make change and end slavery. By creating the Wilmot Proviso, this tremendously helped with the influence of ending slavery by not allowing it in certain parts of the US. The Proviso is significant because it was a large step taken that helped to bring awareness and limitations to slavery.

The Underground Railroad was a systematic route system that helped to lead slaves to freedom. This system was in fact not at all underground, and not a railroad. The actions that took place in the Underground Railroad were done in secret and used terms used in railroading, to disguise, and keep secret of what was going on. The routes stretched in 14 northern states, as well as some parts of Canada, and around 100,000 slaves used this system to escape from slavery. Without the Underground Railroad, many slaves would have not been able to escape from a life of slavery and see their freedom. Truly, the Underground railroad was a life saver for slaves, as well as a means of hope for them to achieve their freedom.

In addition, Brown was also a conductor in the underground railroad. As a conductor of the underground railroad, Brown organized a self-protection league for fugitive slaves. John Brown believed that he was chosen by God to lead slaves into their freedom, and he dedicated his life to helping the cause, and even gave up his life for what he believed should be done.
