Advocating for immediate emancipation distinguished abolitionists from more moderate anti-slavery advocates who argued for gradual emancipation, and from free-soil activists who sought to restrict slavery to existing areas and prevent its spread further west. Radical abolitionism was partly fueled by the religious fervor of the Second Great Awakening, which prompted many people to advocate for emancipation on religious grounds. Abolitionist ideas became increasingly prominent in Northern churches and politics beginning in the 1830s, which contributed to the regional animosity between North and South leading up to the Civil War.

The government will not assail you.... You have no oath registered in Heaven to destroy the government, while I shall have the most solemn one to preserve, protect and defend it.". Lincoln was a major advocate for the freedom of slaves not all the just that it is Morley wrong yet because he wanted to unify the nation. On January 1, 1863, he issued the Emancipation Proclamation that declared forever free those slaves within the Confederacy. "that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain--that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom--and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth."]]> 2017-03-07 14:20:01 UTC https://padlet.com/victoriamitchellmoss/gfkycy24a1xi/wish/158339452 Dred Scott vs Sanford victoriamitchellmoss https://padlet.com/victoriamitchellmoss/gfkycy24a1xi/wish/158340102 Is known for Scott v. Sandford is widely considered the worst decision ever rendered by the Supreme Court. It has been cited in particular as the most egregious example in the court’s history of wrongly imposing a judicial solution on a political problem. Dred Scott was resided in a free state and territory but was not thereby entitled to his freedom; that African Americans were not citizens of the United States and that the MIssouri Compromise which had declared free all territories west of Missouri and north was unconstitutional. The decision added fuel to the sectional controversy and pushed the country closer to civil war.]]> 2017-03-07 14:21:22 UTC https://padlet.com/victoriamitchellmoss/gfkycy24a1xi/wish/158340102 The underground railroad victoriamitchellmoss https://padlet.com/victoriamitchellmoss/gfkycy24a1xi/wish/158340331 The Underground Railroad was a network of secret routes and safe houses established in the United States during the 19th century used by African American slaves to escape into free states and Canada.

Across the north, readers became acutely aware of the horrors of slavery on a far more personal level than ever before. In the south the book was met with outrage and branded an irresponsible book of distortions and overstatements. In such an explosive environment, her story greatly furthered the Abolitionist cause north of the Mason-Dixon Line and promoted sheer indignation in plantation America.]]> 2017-03-09 13:59:19 UTC https://padlet.com/victoriamitchellmoss/gfkycy24a1xi/wish/158962060
