As part of the Compromise of 1850, the Fugitive Slave Act was amended and the slave trade in Washington, D.C., was abolished. ]]> 2017-11-01 12:03:58 UTC https://padlet.com/cailyntidwell/5llvb22moo2y/wish/202448785 Analysis cailyntidwell https://padlet.com/cailyntidwell/5llvb22moo2y/wish/202449119 The transcript of the Missouri compromise was used to authorize the people of the Missouri territory to form a constitution and state government, and for the admission of such state into the Union on an equal footing with the original states, and to prohibit slavery in certain territories. ]]> 2017-11-01 12:05:03 UTC https://padlet.com/cailyntidwell/5llvb22moo2y/wish/202449119 Primary source https://padlet.com/cailyntidwell/5llvb22moo2y/wish/202449297 2017-11-01 12:05:41 UTC https://padlet.com/cailyntidwell/5llvb22moo2y/wish/202449297 Primary source https://padlet.com/cailyntidwell/5llvb22moo2y/wish/202449987 2017-11-01 12:07:52 UTC https://padlet.com/cailyntidwell/5llvb22moo2y/wish/202449987 Dred Scott Decision cailyntidwell https://padlet.com/cailyntidwell/5llvb22moo2y/wish/202450113 The Supreme Court ruled that Mr. Scott, a slave who had spent part of his life in non-slave territory, could not sue for his freedom in a federal court because, as the March 7th New York Times summarized, “Negroes, whether slaves or free, that is, men of the African race, are not citizens of the United States by the Constitution.” ]]> 2017-11-01 12:08:18 UTC https://padlet.com/cailyntidwell/5llvb22moo2y/wish/202450113 Analysis https://padlet.com/cailyntidwell/5llvb22moo2y/wish/202450360 This document shows the effects the fugitive slave law had on the people of color during this time, it is warning people of color to watch out for slave hunters and kidnappers, it also says they should avoid talking with police men. ]]> 2017-11-01 12:09:13 UTC https://padlet.com/cailyntidwell/5llvb22moo2y/wish/202450360 Dred Scott cailyntidwell https://padlet.com/cailyntidwell/5llvb22moo2y/wish/202451673 2017-11-01 12:13:18 UTC https://padlet.com/cailyntidwell/5llvb22moo2y/wish/202451673 Analysis https://padlet.com/cailyntidwell/5llvb22moo2y/wish/202451738 This primary source illustrates the distinct separation of the area of slave sates in the south and the free states in the north after the Missouri Compromise. ]]> 2017-11-01 12:13:34 UTC https://padlet.com/cailyntidwell/5llvb22moo2y/wish/202451738 Dred Scott cailyntidwell https://padlet.com/cailyntidwell/5llvb22moo2y/wish/202451905  To Northerners, this decision was like a declaration of war on all of the ideals and freedoms awarded them by their states and territories, which stood opposed to the institution of slavery.

To Southerners, they saw it as the ultimate vindication of their practice of slavery, and as the front page of the Daily Morning News of Savannah, Georgia, proclaimed, "the series of decisions of the Supreme Court of the United States in the Dred Scott case, is of more vital importance in reference to the settlement of the slavery question than any or all the other acts and proceedings upon this subject- legislative and judicial, State or Federal- since the organization of the Federal Government." ]]> 2017-11-01 12:14:10 UTC https://padlet.com/cailyntidwell/5llvb22moo2y/wish/202451905 Bleeding Kansas https://padlet.com/cailyntidwell/5llvb22moo2y/wish/202452444 Bleeding Kansas was a series of violent political confrontations in the United States between 1854 and 1861 involving anti-slavery "Free-Staters" and pro-slavery "Border Ruffian", or "southern" elements in Kansas.

The children and the aged and infirm work not at all, and yet have all the comforts and necessaries of life provided for them. They enjoy liberty, because they are oppressed neither by care nor labor. The women do little hard work, and are protected from the despotism of their husband by their masters. The Negro men and stout boys work, on the average, in good weather, not more than nine hours a day. The balance of their time is spent in perfect abandon. The free laborer must work or starve. He is more a slave than the Negro because he works longer and harder for less allowance than the slave, and has no holiday, because the cares of his life with him begin when its labors end. He has no liberty, and not a single right. ]]> 2017-11-01 12:34:55 UTC https://padlet.com/cailyntidwell/5llvb22moo2y/wish/202459137 electoral college https://padlet.com/cailyntidwell/5llvb22moo2y/wish/202459932 Electoral college had gone against the entire southern half of america leaving the nation divided.
