Representative James Tallmadge of New York proposed an amendment that essentially stated that Missouri could only enter the United States as a free state.

South View: This angered Southerners because many believed that Congress had no place to put regulations on slavery

Northern View: Many Northerners were pleased because they didn't agree with the morals of slavery. ]]> 2023-06-02 19:42:57 UTC https://padlet.com/srodgers7041/bcb48lqawpta4h9v/wish/2613222445 srodgers7041 https://padlet.com/srodgers7041/bcb48lqawpta4h9v/wish/2613224336 Description: The Missouri Comprise added Missouri to the United States as a slave state and changed Maine to a free state in order to keep the balance.

At the end, there were about 40 people in the rebellion and about 55 people had been killed.

South View: Probably fearful of the power that had come from just a single rebellion.

North View: I don't know if a lot of people were happy because they were rebelling, or if many didn't agree with using violence. I'm sure some of both. ]]> 2023-06-05 17:01:00 UTC https://padlet.com/srodgers7041/bcb48lqawpta4h9v/wish/2615024263 srodgers7041 https://padlet.com/srodgers7041/bcb48lqawpta4h9v/wish/2615024847 Description: From 1836 to 1844 a set of strict rules was applied to the House of Representatives that prohibited the topic of slavery to be discussed or merely brought up.

North View: The Northerners were probably very angered by this because they wanted the government to say that slavery was illegal. ]]> 2023-06-05 17:01:38 UTC https://padlet.com/srodgers7041/bcb48lqawpta4h9v/wish/2615024847 srodgers7041 https://padlet.com/srodgers7041/bcb48lqawpta4h9v/wish/2615025753 Description: California entered the United States as part of the Compromise of 1850 as a free state to keep the balance.

North View: The North was happy because they would be put in a better Congressional position. ]]> 2023-06-05 17:02:41 UTC https://padlet.com/srodgers7041/bcb48lqawpta4h9v/wish/2615025753 srodgers7041 https://padlet.com/srodgers7041/bcb48lqawpta4h9v/wish/2615026179 Description: This was a law that was part of the Compromise of 1850 that required Northerners to return all runaway slaves from the South back to their owners.

South Views: The South was happy because runaway slaves was viewed as a problem for them and having a law that required them to be returned was beneficial to their businesses.

North Views: This law was opposed heavily by the North when it was put in place and they were angered that this law existed because their lands were free. ]]> 2023-06-05 17:03:15 UTC https://padlet.com/srodgers7041/bcb48lqawpta4h9v/wish/2615026179 srodgers7041 https://padlet.com/srodgers7041/bcb48lqawpta4h9v/wish/2615026819 Description: Uncle Tom's Cabin is a book by Harriet Beecher Stowe that exposed the abuse of slaves and the awful experiences that they had.

The Supreme Court ruled in favor of his owner, saying that African Americans were not citizens, so they did not have the right to sue. They said that slaves were property and that Congress could not make any laws regarding slavery, so the Missouri Compromise was ruled unconstitutional.

South View: The South was happy because Congress could now not put any laws regarding slavery and slavery was protected.

North View: The North was angered by this decision because it protected slavery. ]]> 2023-06-05 17:08:37 UTC https://padlet.com/srodgers7041/bcb48lqawpta4h9v/wish/2615030437 srodgers7041 https://padlet.com/srodgers7041/bcb48lqawpta4h9v/wish/2615031863 Description: When Lincoln and Souglas ran against each other for a position in the US Senate, Lincoln said his famous quote: "a house divided cannot stand".
