The Divisive Politics of Slavery 10.1

BIG IDEAS MAIN IDEA: The issue of slavery dominated U.S. politics in the early 1850’s WHY IT MATTERS NOW: U.S. society continues to be challenged by issues of fairness, equality, race, and class.

Slavery in the Territories As tensions between the states grew, issues in expanding America only added to the slavery problem. Democrat David Wilmot (PA) introduced an amendment proposing that “neither slavery nor involuntary servitude shall ever exist” in any territory acquired by the U.S. This became known as the Wilmot Proviso

The Wilmot Proviso As the idea of manifest destiny continued to grow tensions rose between the North and South in congress Southern congressmen refused to vote on important national improvements that would help the north (canals, roads) Northern congressmen feared adding slave territory would give the South an upper hand

Controversy in California The Gold rush causes population growth at an expanded rate CA skips territorial phase and applies for statehood AS A FREE STATE How does the Missouri Compromise effect CA’s decision to enter the union as free and not slave?
