The north favored this proposal because their goal was to create a nation with as many free states as possible. The south heavily protested this amendment knowing that if Missouri became a free state, they would lose the power to block anti-slavery bills and their economy would suffer.]]> 2022-05-26 17:49:11 UTC https://padlet.com/sbell65291/id7ylovdz98z1gr/wish/2201189922 sbell65291 https://padlet.com/sbell65291/id7ylovdz98z1gr/wish/2201190150 The Missouri Compromise admitted Missouri as a slave state but recognized Maine as a free state, this way there were an equal amount of slave states and free states. Neither side of the nation was happy with this "agreement." The Northerners thought of their congress as traitors for allowing the compermise and the Southerners resented the ban on slavery in a part of the Louisiana Territory.]]> 2022-05-26 17:49:23 UTC https://padlet.com/sbell65291/id7ylovdz98z1gr/wish/2201190150 sbell65291 https://padlet.com/sbell65291/id7ylovdz98z1gr/wish/2201190329 In 1831 an enslaved man and preacher named Nat Turner went from house to house with 6 other men, killing all the white people they had encountered. This event grew into a rebellion later consisting of 40 enslaved people, killing 55 white people. The south wasn't happy with this rebellion and put "slave codes" in place. These were very strict laws restricting slaves from reading, writing, and meeting without a white person present. Many Northerners thought that this rebellion was necessary to the movement but some didn't think killing was necessary and wanted to abolish slavery peacefully.]]> 2022-05-26 17:49:33 UTC https://padlet.com/sbell65291/id7ylovdz98z1gr/wish/2201190329 sbell65291 https://padlet.com/sbell65291/id7ylovdz98z1gr/wish/2201190751 Throughout the 1830's abolishonists tried their hardest to put anti-slavery bills in place. Congress wasn't allowed to interfere with slavery in the states so abolishonists decided to challenge slave laws in the District of Colombia. Instead of trying to figure out how to answer such a question congress decided to silence abolishonists by acting on the "Gag Rule." The Gag Rule restricted abolishonists from debating in congress over slavery. This didn't stop the Northerners from retaliating and the South didn't take it well. The south didn't appreciate the Northern abolishonists "ruining" their ways of life and continued to put strict laws to control the North from stopping slavery.]]> 2022-05-26 17:49:57 UTC https://padlet.com/sbell65291/id7ylovdz98z1gr/wish/2201190751 sbell65291 https://padlet.com/sbell65291/id7ylovdz98z1gr/wish/2201191728 Wilmot Proviso proposed that slavery should not be allowed in the Mexican Cession. The Northerners agreed with that statement and knew this would be good for the future of a free nation. The Sourtherners on the other hand weren't happy with this and thought that congress had no place in deciding where slave holders could have property.]]> 2022-05-26 17:50:53 UTC https://padlet.com/sbell65291/id7ylovdz98z1gr/wish/2201191728 sbell65291 https://padlet.com/sbell65291/id7ylovdz98z1gr/wish/2201192115 When California applied for statehood the Northerners welcomed it immediatly knowing it would be admitted as a free state. The Southerners thought this was unfair, if California became a free state there would be an unequal number of free states to slave states. This caused an uproar and essentially broke the Missouri Compromise. ]]> 2022-05-26 17:51:14 UTC https://padlet.com/sbell65291/id7ylovdz98z1gr/wish/2201192115 sbell65291 https://padlet.com/sbell65291/id7ylovdz98z1gr/wish/2201192401 This was a law in which if an enslaved person especaped to a free state, they would have to be brought back to their owners. The Northerners were appaled by this because the magority of them thought that slavery should be illegal and this law would have to go agaisnt their moral beleifs. Southerners didn't exactly disagree with this law but they didn't think that Northerners would take responsibility and follow this law. This led to both sides being dissatisfied.]]> 2022-05-26 17:51:30 UTC https://padlet.com/sbell65291/id7ylovdz98z1gr/wish/2201192401 sbell65291 https://padlet.com/sbell65291/id7ylovdz98z1gr/wish/2201192717 Uncle Tom's Cabin was a book written by Harriet Beecher Stowe about the crulty of slavery.

Congress decided to let the people decide this descision whether they should allow slavery or not. Riots and violence spread rather quickly creating a time called "Bleeding Kansas." This violence also spread to congress when Senator Sumner was beaten by a can eby Rep. Preston when he made a speech against the south. The Northerners were pretty unhaooy with this considering most of the southern states would deem slavery legal. The South was pleased with this act, knowing they'd be allowed to enable slavery within their limits with as little reprocussions as they wanted. ]]> 2022-05-26 17:52:07 UTC https://padlet.com/sbell65291/id7ylovdz98z1gr/wish/2201193050 sbell65291 https://padlet.com/sbell65291/id7ylovdz98z1gr/wish/2201193338 Dred Scott lived in a free territory and sued in the Supreme Court because he thought he should no longer be considered a slave. The court not only ruled thst he was still enslaved but the court also ruled that all African Americans we're no longer considered citizens of America and didn't hold any rights what so ever. The court also ruled that the Missouri Compromise was unconstitutional hence proper free and slave state laws were abolished. The North was very unhappy with this and didn't think it was fair to strip all African Americans, even if they were born citizens of their citizenship and rights. The South celebrated this, this descision made it much harder for anti-slavery laws to be put in place.]]> 2022-05-26 17:52:24 UTC https://padlet.com/sbell65291/id7ylovdz98z1gr/wish/2201193338 sbell65291 https://padlet.com/sbell65291/id7ylovdz98z1gr/wish/2201193997 The Lincoln Douglas debates were a series of debates between running candidates Abraham Lincoln and Stephen Douglas ranging from Augest 21st to October 15th. During these debates the House of Representitives was extremely divided in terms of laws relating to slavery, and race in general.
